We were alerted to this photo submitted via the Star Tribune's user upload site. It's from hardrocker, and the user says it was taken directly off of Swedish TV from the Vikings/Packers game at Lambeau.

Notice anything different about the spelling of one team name?

Ah, nothing like a little immature fun when the home team is 7-1 and the border rival is struggling to the point that fans want the GM fired.
