NICKELBACK was selected to play the halftime show of the Thanksgiving football game between the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers. The game is being held in Detroit, and the local fans do NOT want Nickelback to be there. In fact, there's an online petition making the rounds asking the band to be replaced, because the fans are apparently DISGUSTED by Nickelback. Here's the full explanation, from the petition: Quote, "This game is nationally televised, do we really want the rest of the U.S. to associate Detroit with Nickelback? Detroit is home to so many great musicians and they chose Nickelback?!?!?! Does anyone even like Nickelback? Is this some sort of ploy to get people to leave their seats during halftime to spend money on alcoholic beverages and concessions? This is completely unfair to those of us who purchased tickets to the game. At least the people watching at home can mute their TVs. The Lions ought to think about their fans before choosing such an awful band to play at halftime." You can view the petition on Change.org.
