Eminem captivated fans with an “electric” Thanksgiving Halftime Show for the Detroit Lions on Thursday7. Jack White performed The White Stripes’ “Seven Nation Army” at the Lions’ annual Thanksgiving Day Classic event at Ford Field.

The Lions have the most wins, and the most losses, of any NFL team playing on Thanksgiving. They hold a 38-45-2 record, according to ESPN. They beat the Chicago Bears 23-20 on Turkey Day last year, marking the first time in eight years Detroit has won on the holiday.

The Packers started hot and kept the Lions at arm’s length the rest of the game. Detroit never led. The Packers made numerous plays on each side of the ball, just like they did in the season opener.

The two music superstars performed together for the first time during the game's halftime show. Both broke big out of Detroit in the early 2000s.
