Never Underestimate a Packer Fan

My house is full of Green Bay Packer fans.  Normally, that's not a problem.  It becomes a problem when the Packer games are not on channels we get.

Where we live, there is no cable.  We have a satellite dish that gets lots of channels (and sometimes there is still nothing on).  We have two black boxes with three remotes and a relatively expensive antenna for the big TV.  Hubby and son can manipulate all this equipment with their eyes closed; I can not.  One of the boxes is for regular television - ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox.  We have been frustrated since the day we moved in that we can not get what is now NBC.  The local signal has just not been strong enough to reach us.

A couple days ago, the local channel strengthened the signal.  Hubby was ecstatic.  Now he would be able to get NBC - and just in time to watch the Packers! 

Then he tried to tune in NBC.  We have four TV's in our house and the only one that would get NBC is the smallest one.  Hubby was not amused, but he didn't give up.  The electronic masterminds (hubby and son) tried everything they could think of to get it to work.  For awhile, I thought one of us was going to have to stand near the contraption holding a sheet of tin foil in order to get a good picture.  But, the masterminds prevailed (see photo) and we are now watching the Packer game.

I just hope the signal holds for the whole game...
