Nickelback's stage leads to a game delay before third quarter

By Dan Hanzus NFL.com

Let's just go ahead and call Ford Field's halftime show on Thanksgiving less than inspired.

It started with post-grunge rock outfit Nickelback getting booed during their introduction, playing one mid-tempo ballad, then hitting the road like they had to catch a flight back to Canada.

Chad Kroeger and Co. were long gone by the time players from the Packers and Lions returned to the field. The same could not be said about Nickelback's stage, which got stuck in transport, delaying the start of the third quarter.

Fox gave viewers one last look of the partly disassembled stage near the end zone tunnel, lingering in the public's consciousness like that one Nickelback song about Spider-Man.
