Go Lions popcorn is blueberry and vanilla flavored. “We probably up to over 200 to 300 bags of popcorn within not even 24 hours, POP-ity Popcorn Co. owner Bob Matthiesen told 6 News. “This company’s never really been open really for the public and I’ve been really trying to do that. And with this it has really been helpful.”

POP-ity Popcorn Co. isn’t the only local place selling Lions-themed goods. The MSU Dairy Store is selling Lion Track ice cream and Biggby Coffee is offering anyone wearing Lions gear half-off a specialty drink called The Black Eye.
