This is one of those things u should have let her know WAAAY ahead of time and said that bears games mean a lot to you. Buuut, it is her birthday, if it were me, I would do it out of decency without her asking just to show how much I care. But honestly, it depends on how you value birthdays. You can dvr or watch it on gamepass at 8 pm ET. In a perfect relationship, she says "Let's watch the Bears game together, then celebrate the win by going to the winery!" Haha

Yes, this is what I did. You have to let her know about your Bears passion early in the relationship. I let her know very clearly that just one day a week, for four months of the year, was football day for me. I explained to her that the other 6 days of the week, and the rest of the year, I'm all hers. I told her that other guys get drunk, chase other girls, and engage in all kinds of debauchery, but all I need is one day of watching football. It worked, and she knows not to bother me on Sundays.

If the Bears are not the hill you choose to make a stand on then what is?
Surrender now and prepare to be the French.

How many Sunday dinners do I attend at my wife's parents house during the season, 0.
How many the rest of the year, all of them.

I would consider dating a woman that legitimately loves football. Even if they aren't a Bears fan.

Have you considered finding a girlfriend whose birthday is not during football season?

Suck it up. Turn your phone notifications off for any sports apps you have. Punch anyone who tries to update you on the game. Watch it later Sunday by purchasing the NFL online thing that let's you watch the games after they air (NFL Pass I believe).
Otherwise, don't do any of the above, work on your hand and forearm muscles, and invest heavily in lotion.

Hate to say it , but you need to just do the whole birthday thing if you want to stay in the relationship and not go through agony....

It is amazing how many guys let a woman control their lives. And it is so unfortunate too because all of you that give into their every need then wonder why those same women take advantage of you. It's like you are afraid of losing her. But what you don't understand is women are not attracted to pushovers. Whether they admit it or not.
I just wish I could shake some of you out of this pussified way of thinking.

Watch the game, dude. She can't wait til 3:30 to go to a winery? Cmon..
You get 16 weeks a year to enjoy what you LOVE and the rest of the time it's gone til next season. For 3 hours on a Sunday I'd hope she'd be understanding. Good luck, buddy!

Your choice dude. I had to give up the game yesterday for my wife's aunt from out of town (I watched on Gamepass later). She's a cool lady and I wouldn't do it normally. I fight Bears Sundays 98% of the time, but I felt this was an important enough event to give up the Bears game. My sister in law's dickhead bf was trying to be cute and tell me how good KC was doing and I squashed that nonsense with the quickness. Ultimately you choose, but she needs to know there's a line and she'd better not cross it too many times.

Compromise
Take her there at 3:30 and then to a nice dinner. Explain to her that you will be able to enjoy the day and evening better after the game.
Without compromise the relationship is not worth anything.
That and she wants you to stand up for what you want and be a man, if she wanted a lap dog she should get a shitszu.
That and birthdays after 21 are stupid; you are literally celebrating moving closer to death. I don't even care about my birthday just give me a check and let's move on.

Unless she is going to blow you at the winery while you sip on a good chardonnay then it's not worth it IMO. Just go after the game instead.

^This. She's pulling the out an old ***** move - trying to flex some control and emasculating her pet in front of her little baby shower friends.
Does the girlfriend know how important to you this is? If not, you better make it clear. If so, she using a typical control tactic. It might be a red flag IMO.
Be a man.
