More than 56,000 seats sold in Detroit for Browns-Bills game

Even though Sunday's Buffalo Bills-Cleveland Browns game is going to be played at a neutral site in Detroit, there should be quite the atmosphere in the standings.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that there were more than 56,000 seats sold at Ford Field for the game, with a large number of them presumably going to Bills fans. That will make it feel like a home game after all.

The game was originally scheduled to be played in Buffalo, but a massive blizzard that dumped several feet of snow on the area forced its relocation.

While travel would not be easy at the moment from Buffalo, the Bills do have an enormous fan base that spans the country. Fans living north of the city who escaped the worst of the snow could also make the drive if they went into Detroit through Canada. 

It should also be noted that the Browns have a rather fierce following of their own, and the drive from Cleveland to Detroit is only about two hours. 

No matter who bought those tickets, it will not be a bland setting. 

The Bills will remain in Detroit after Sunday's game for their Thanksgiving afternoon game against the Lions on Thursday.
