Mike Tirico and Jason Garrett teased a young Green Bay Packers fan over his hilarious game sign at the club’s home contest against the Miami Dolphins at Lambeau Field.
The 57-year-old Mike Tirico usually calls games with Cris Collinsworth for NBC, but he’s working with the former Dallas Cowboys quarterback and head coach for the third 2024 NFL Thanksgiving game.
During the game, cameras showed a young Dolphins fan holding a hysterical sign that read, “I MISSED MY MOM’S DRY TURKEY FOR THIS GAME.” But let’s just say that Tirico and Garrett weren’t all that impressed, instead questioning the kid’s etiquette (jokingly, of course).

Make no mistake, it’s always hard to turn down a family turkey for Thanksgiving. But on the short list of excuses to purposely miss out on it, going to a Dolphins-Packers game is pretty valid.
Happy Thanksgiving, all.
Mike Tirico Is Back In The Booth On Sunday
Unlike Collinsworth, Mike Tirico doesn’t get an off day this week. The two will be back in the broadcast booth on “Sunday Night Football” to call the Buffalo Bills-San Francisco 49ers game at Highmark Stadium.
