This partnership clearly paid off, proving that Em knew <b>exactly how to light that place up<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"4\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The electric halftime spectacle, which many on social media quickly compared favorably to Super Bowl productions, offered a moment of hometown triumph. However, the energy didn&#8217;t translate to the scoreboard for the home team. The <b>Detroit Lions<\/b> ultimately fell to the <b>Green Bay Packers<\/b> in the annual matchup, suffering a <b>31-24<\/b> loss.
