Back in the days when the NFL blacked out the games of the local team whenever they were playing at home, men, with their wives in tow, drove to a motel in the next TV market (Albany or Binghamton if they lived in or just outside New York City, Scranton if they lived in or just outside Philadelphia) just to be able to watch the Giants or Jets in the former example, or the Eagles in the latter, play their home games. The women referred to their husbands who did this as "Rabbit-Eared Roosters." Some even did it for college games on Saturdays, making a weekend of it.
