Anyplace to catch the NFL

[maxiesmom]

So my nephew just told me that the Detroit Lions are playing at 9:30 am the Sunday we are at WDW. He would like to be able to watch the game. Does anyone know if that is something we will be able to get in the room? Are there places around WDW that would be showing an early morning game?

We have watched games in the past at ESPN.

Are they open that early in the morning? That would work great, as we have an ADR at the Prime Time Cafe in the afternoon.

I wonder why they are playing so early on a Sunday morning. I can not remember ever seeing such a weird time for an NFL game.

I have seen different opening times, 10:30 or 11:30. If it's 10:30, you'd catch half of the game.

Where are you staying? I know, last year when we were at SSR, there was a group watching a football game in a lounge back by The Turf Club.

They are playing in England.

We are staying at the All Star Sports. Wonder if we would be lucky enough for the game to be on in the food court or out by the pool.

I was wondering the same thing. We'll be down at Fort Wilderness over Wildcard Weekend, which is my favorite football weekend of the year. We're not Disney expert enough to know where the best place would be to catch at least part of the games.

Normally, I'd park myself on my sofa for the entire weekend along with my sons. But I'm sure that DW isn't going to allow that during our trip. Still, I'd like to catch at least parts of the games.

That makes sense. That was my assumption but it was not noted on the schedule that I saw. Thanks.

Looks like it is being broadcast on Fox. That's WOFL 35, it's available in the room.

Thank you! I can leave the guys in the room, and head to Epcot for some shopping. I love football too, but I can watch it the rest of the year!!
