Cheer Culture

‘Bless You Boys’ began as sportscaster Al Ackerman’s sarcastic dig at a struggling Tigers team, but when the club stormed to a 35-5 start and the 1984 World Series title, fans flipped it into a proud rallying cry. Navy, white, and orange face paint plus the “Go Get ‘Em, Tigers” chant remain Comerica Park’s signature fan traditions today.

💡 Insider Tips

Bag policy is among the strictest in MLB — only a single-compartment wallet or clutch under 4x6x1.5 inches is allowed, with backpacks banned regardless of size (medical/diaper bags up to 16x16x8 in. are an exception). Beyond the outfield there’s a Ferris wheel ($2) and carousel, plus $3 hot dogs on Tuesdays, and the whole ballpark is cashless with ATMs available for currency exchange.
