An announcement was made at about 6:40 p.m. that admission has been paused.

The NFL had been telling fans to get down early with capacity limits inside the perimeter of the Draft Theatre and Draft Experience, especially on Thursday night for the first round.

There’s plenty to do outside the main draft stage zone, with plenty of bars and restaurants hosting draft watching parties around the city of Detroit.
