Reunion Station Football

[ebenmax]

Our family will be in WDW for the College Football Playoffs and our looking for a place to watch the games. Has anyone done the experience at Reunion Station and willing to share some thoughts?

I noticed it ends Dec. 28th which is playoff day, but the times are noonish to 8:00pm.
I’m pretty sure one of the playoff games is at night and there are only 2 games total.
Will they extend the hours for this event to accommodate the games?

Thank you for your insights!

I think your better shot is ESPN. I think Reunion Station only has two games 1PM and 4PM I think it is? Watching videos of the walk through as well I didn't really see many TVs either but maybe they add more for the game day?

You might need to call them but if you want a better atmosphere ESPN likely will be pretty exciting and you can reserve special tables there as well and specify the games you watch on a TV in front of your table (unless things changed recently).

The Reunion Station thing hasn't seemed to be well reviewed or attended, and they're only showing like 2 games per day.

On the 28th they should shift the times to cover the 2 games but not sure they even realize. I think the offerings look good, the food and drinks. ANd they added a TV or 2 to the 2 that were in there. Though I heard it has been a dud and they have cancelled some of the dates due to low bookings. We were debating trying it out. I think it's a good premise but they need several TVs showing different games. ANd they need to subscribe to many channels (IE: FS1).

We have visited Disney the last 4 Septembers and always go to the ESPN Club to watch our favorite college team play on Saturday. It is always a fun environment. There is a new sports bar opening in Disney Springs (not sure when). It is called City Works. I have been to the one in Pittsburgh and think it would be a good place to watch the games as well. Have fun!

If nice weather, and you are at WL area - go to Geyser Point. If boardwalk area - ESPN (they even have TVs in the bathrooms). We watched a playoff game at Splittsville (upstairs) last year, but no sound so I went elsewhere at halftime- went to Turf Club lounge (we were staying at SSR) to watch the rest, which reminded me of a 'watch party' back home (aka smallish room, smallish bar area, fun people). Here now, and there's a nice big TV that had the college games on yesterday at the BCV pool table room.

City Works is opening in Jan, I do believe.
