Figuring why not, Lions fan Kam Register DM'd Darius Slay on Twitter last Friday to invite him to his high school graduation party.
"Yo Darius, I am having my grad party tomorrow. I would absolutely die if you came. Is that possible?" Register asked.
Slay's response: "Where at what time"
After Register sent him the details, Slay told him he "might pop up." And then he did.

"Just pick a game," Slay said.
