Its funny seeing Aaron Glenn Chasing down Barry on that historic run. Who would have thought we'd see Glenn coaching the Lions almost 30yrs later. 😀

I consider myself lucky to have been able to watch Barry Sanders entire career with the lions

I tell my young nephews that I was one of the lucky ones who were able to watch the career of the greatest running back of all time. Thanks for the memories Barry!

BEST RB I have ever seen. Period.

Detroit. A city where putting in a good days work means something.

BARRY SANDERS RULES OVER ALL RUNNING BACKS!!!!! 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

When he said you don't talk about the lions without mentioning Barry sanders. So true man, Barry Sanders is why I'm a lions fan

Not once does he put himself or his achievements above his teammates. Shows his character and what kind of man he is.

With all the excitement in Detroit, there is still nothing better than watching some Barry highlights film

Barry Sanders is the best player and human to play football. Much love and respect to Mr. Sanders

He was The Greatest Of All Time. Truly transcendent of time

Simply The Best!

so happy for 20! living breathing legend, awesome to see him getting the flowers he deserves.

Dag gone-it! I told myself I wasn’t going to cry. Barry gets me every time.

He played his heart and soul for the Detroit Lions. I wish he could score for us now; he has earned it.

The best there ever was. The best there ever will be. Thank you Barry. One Pride. Go Lions!

The reason I fell in love with the game of football and became a lions fan is that man. His entire career is a highlight reel. There’s no decline. Absolutely amazing

The most Humble & Greatest Football player ever. May GOD bless him and all of you.

The running GOAT

I seen Barry play live in the Silver Dome from 1989-1993 in the suite on 45 yardline. That's where Barry got started for Greatness after 1993.

Barry’s a hero!

Love, love, love Barry. The man has been a legemd since he put on #20

Great tribute. Now they have to make a statue for Megatron as well

The goat of running backs, to honor the greatest player in Detroit Lions history and did it for 10 years. The myth, the man, and the legend Barry Sanders!

Legendary 🎉🎉🎉🎉

A very special game I was fortunate enough to be at

ライオンズをファンになったきっかけがサンダースでした❗

So, I was a six-year-old child who had older brothers' cousins etc. who looked at football as a secondary sport. So, growing up in Detroit in 1989 everyone was more of a Bad Boy Piston fan lol. Then came Barry the Goat Sanders and WHOA, I mean he meant more to us more than the sport itself. Barry made our team the team I love and respect today. Thank you for the memories, for making our Thanksgiving a two-part day lol and thank you for showing all of us young kids in Detroit what greatness looks like and how to conduct yourself as a gentleman. Much deserved.

Barry has been my #1 idol since he became a Lion, when I was a kid. Growing up watching him in the Silverdome with my brother and my late father, or some of my best memories. This was amazing to see. Barry is a legend and I love that he has stuck around Detroit and the organization.

I was three when he came into the NFL. I remember when we were growing up we used to mimic his moves and shiftiness on his runs. I'm a Saints fan but man Barry is one of the Great ones.

in the immortal words of my 5 yr old nephew, "i love larry sanders, woo woo, choo choo train". I feel like only true lions fans will understand these words.

I knew we all in the mist of the 'Lions movie, A Real Underdog Story'..

Saludos desde Cancún México. Soy fan de los "LIONS DETROIT" Desde 1987 siempre es fiel a mi equipo y JUGADORES como BARRI SANDERS hacen que se mantenga ese sueño de ver a los LIONS en el juego grande. Bien merecido y ganado tiene ese reconocimiento un gran corredor el mejor.😊

As a Commanders fan, this is absolutely beautiful to see. It is such a fitting tribute for arguably the greatest running back and greatest Lion of all time. Seeing this makes me realize how shamefully the Snyder administration handled the Sean Taylor "tribute", I hope the new owners can do something for him that even comes close to this! #HTTC

Goat 😢❤

Best athlete, I've ever seen. Almost every hockey player is better today than Gretzky was athletically. Basketball players get better and better and theyre better than their predecessors. Nobody runs like Barry today, 20 + years after. Barry was special.

Thank you for this. ❤

Thank you Barry for all those memories as a kid growing up watching the Lions. I hope all future generations get to appreciate the player, the man and the ambassador he is for this great city

The Lion King IMMORTAL!!!!

I can recall going to SVSU every summer and seeing Barry, Scot Mitchell and crew every summer. What a time to be a kid!

I’m old enough to have seen many iconic athletes across sports whom I consider as the greatest to have ever done it, and to me, due to his insane talent and humble nature, Barry is the greatest of them all…

Was a lucky young man growing up watching Barry run, living outside of Detroit

Barry, Barry, Barry......etc!

damn that was beautiful thank you barry

🐐🐐🐐🐐 #20

Barry you will always be the greatest running back in history. It was awful you had such a bad linemen and no real good relievers. And worst yet very bad coaching staff and upper management. You would have had all the records easy if you had a real decent team. You earned all them yards by yourself. Thanks for being able to watch. And a great decision to end your career. It was because of bad management. Love you barry❤

Great vid

GOAT

🐐

BARRY! BARRY! BARRY! Go Lions!!

Wish I could have been alive to see Barry play but I did have Calvin Johnson jr anyways go lions baby

Put a megatron statue next to him.

Crying 😢

I'm not crying. You're crying.

He could play in ANY era & still make ALL defenders look foolish.. I keep waiting to see someone even come close to his level of agility but I don't think anyone will.. 4E the 🐐

he restored the roar however it wasnt shiela ford running the team to open up the check book letting out all the deacades of moths flying out of it when it was finally opened had 1 of the best running backs in history with few to zero offensive linemen that could make a play without a penalty each time barry got the ball down field very sad times for us lions fans! sorry my opinion only reflects the past into the future 🤷‍♂️💪GO LIONS GO💪👍👍

Go Lions

Da GOAT

Let's go Lions. Seahawks are coming into the Den tomorrow!

I fully believe our karma is because we got both barry and Calvin. Best rb ever. 2nd best wr ever. The world can't let us win. I was a responsible parent and told my son you don't want this path. Nothing but heartache. He rode for a couple yrs but only because I made sure he had sneakers to match that calvin jersey

Today is the 25th anniversary of the goat Barry sanders retirement from the lions. Your thoughts of why did he retire from the NFL. Should he kept playing in which he would have been the all time leading rusher in yards, but no super bowls. Or demand a trade somewhere else in which he could have a chance to win a super bowl. Or did he did the right thing of retiring in the prime of his career.

And tomorrow we watch Barry 2.0 at his first home game. Gibbs is going to be electric. I feel it in my bones. The roar will be restored

It’s really a travesty how we (the lions)wasted his career
