The Sarnia Razorclaws showed the 65,000 fans at Ford Field Sunday that Canadians can do more than just play hockey.

The Sarnia Minor Athletic Association team beat the Michigan-based South Christian 56ers 12-6 during half time of the Detroit Lions game against the Atlanta Falcons.

It's the second year the team got to play during half time of a Lions' home game, and are now 2-0 at Ford Field after winning their scrimmage last year as well. Last year's victory was a 20-0 triumph over another team from Michigan.

The Lions should of taken a page from the Razorclaws playbook, as Detroit ended up losing the game 30-26.
