The Buffalo Bills led the Detroit Lions, 17-10, at halftime of their Thanksgiving contest at Ford Field in Michigan. Unfortunately for fans, the game-day experience quickly went off the rails with the planned halftime performance by American pop star Bebe Rexha.
Viewers at home were treated to nauseating swirls of the cameras around Rexha’s visage.

“The CBS Thanksgiving Halftime Show, brought to you by Vertigo,” Awful Announcing joked.
The experience wasn’t much better for Lions fans in attendance, either. Organizers made the curious choice of putting Rexha on a faraway stage that most fans couldn’t see.

Those in attendance also made their voices heard.
