Why put yourself in that situation? You'll save money by watching the games from home, and it's an easy and viable option. I'd highly recommend it, those packages are great and really give a true fan a better NFL experience! I say skip the bar...no reason to play with fire. Just a thought.

Also, since you're an NFC North fan, your team will probably have half their games televised anyway, as you live in an NFC North market. Good luck to your Lions - I'm a Vikings fan myself! Arroooooo!!!!
