Stuck in the snow for 3 days

I should of got snow tires sooner. I had some Yokohama 245/50/R16 tires on the rear that are meant pretty much for road racing. We had between 18-24 inches of snowfall here and I could not move one single inch after they plowed my street.
 Put the car in gear, no gas and the tires would spin. I even had one tire on concrete and I still couldn't go. Had several people pushing me could only move a couple of feet. We got it out one time and onto the middle of the road where the snow was barely even there and it would just sit there spinning. People tend to get heated and my dad was like hell drive it like that and I say ok everybody you got to push me around all night.  Went and got some new tires and now driving in the snow is fun. Except my brake lights kept blowing their fuse but they work fine now after whatever wire I smelt burning evaporated.  :brick:  :shoothead
