GREEN BAY (WLUK) -- Some fans watching the Green Bay Packers - Miami Dolphins halftime performance from home left hungry on Thanksgiving.

Multi-platinum-selling electronic violinist, dancer, and aerialist, Lindsey Stirling, performed at Green Bay's Lambeau Field during the game's halftime.

Fans felt snubbed when the network chose to air a short homecoming story on Green Bay native and Dolphins fullback, Alec Ingold, rather than Stirling's full performance.

Fans watching from home got to see a just a few seconds of Stirling's performance before going to commercial.


Fans also noted the stark contrast between NBC and its competitors on Turkey Day performances.

CBS showed Shaboozey's Lions-Bears concert in its entirety while FOX did the same with Lainey Wilson-Jelly Roll's performance during the Cowboys-Giants game.

NBC has not commented on its decision.

It was Sterling's first NFL halftime performance.
