Eli Manning, NFL quarterback of the New York Giants is heading to Green Bay to play the NFC Championship game against the Packers this weekend. He will not be enjoying his favorite television show during his stay.
Turns out Fox affiliate WLUK-TV Green Bay got wind that Manning’s favorite TV show is Seinfeld and has pulled it from their television lineup on Saturday evening.
Jay Zollar, station manager, says that laughter is the best medicine and doesn’t want to put Manning in a good mood prior to the playoff game on Sunday. Sounds like he wants to do his part – as any good cheese head would.
The residents of Green Bay have been given several options on what they want to view in the Saturday evening 5:30pm time slot. Choices are an episode of Mash, a Vince Lombardi special, an infomercial starring NFL hall of famer Emmett Smith or an NFL program called Inside The Hub.
In any case, the town of Green Bay is 100% behind their team. Lambeau Field is the place to be this Sunday evening. Go Pack!
