Fans slammed broadcaster NBC for not showing musician Tyler Hubbard’s half-time show during the New England Patriots vs Minnesota Vikings Thanksgiving game.
“Hey @nfl… what was that lame deal on the @tylerhubbard #halftime show? Lol,” a Twitter user said.
“Why in the f**k did they advertise so much about @yunggravy and @FLAGALine’s @tylerhubbard if they’re not even going to air it to everyone?! What a joke,” another one added.
“Seriously @nbc you can’t even show @tylerhubbard halftime show?!?! It was the whole reason I tuned in!!!! @NFLonNBC,” a third one said.
“TYLER HUBBARD OF THE FLORIDA-GEORGIA LINE PLAYED HALFTIME OF THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS VS THE NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS AT US BANK STADIUM IN MINNEAPOLIS, MN & THEY DIDNT SHOW IT ON TELEVISION!???!?????!??!?!!” another one added.
It is traditional for NFL teams hosting games on Thanksgiving Day to have a musician perform during half-time. While some fans have been happy about the performance, others quipped that it lasted for a very short while. One fan on Twitter joked, “Tyler Hubbard’s halftime show lasted longer than the Patriots lead.”

A number of celebrities performed at the various games tonight. While Hubbard performed at the Patriots’ game, the Jonas Brothers took to the stage for the match between the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants.
When the broadcast started showing a commerical as soon as Hubbard took to the stage, some fans thought he was there in a ceremonial capacity. Some were even left wondering why all the NFL games on Thanksgiving night had musical concerts except for the game between the Patriots and Vikings.

No music………”
