Where to watch football games?

Where is a good kid-friendly place on or off property to watch the Iron Bowl on the day after Thanksgiving? I'd heard about the ESPN at Disney Springs but wondered if that would be too crowded.

ESPN is at the boardwalk unless they also opened another one at Disney springs. The bowling alley at Disney springs...sorry can't remember the name...has a lot of tvs.

The bowling alley is Splitsville. My DH and I absolutely loved our experience at Splitsville!

We also watched the Seahawks vs Green Bay SNF game at ESPN on the Boardwalk. It was a great experience as well. We wore jerseys all day and when we arrived at ESPN, they seated us nearest a TV playing that game to make sure we had the best view possible. Our waiter never made us feel rushed. We spent hours there. He brought us drinks, followed by appetizers about 45 minutes later, then our meals an hour later. Of course, he asked before doing so. It wasn't slow service, it was great customer service. He made sure our drinks were never empty and kept an eye on the game to get the timing of our food right for us. It was a great Sunday dinner, even if Green Bay won

Also remember Disney owns ESPN so if push comes to shove, you can watch in your room they show all the ESPN channels (my son loves it, me not so much can't tell you how many games I've gone to sleep to).

The Iron Bowl is on CBS, I think. But all the networks are carried in the rooms, and at ESPN Club.

Would these be good for kids?

ESPN Club on the Boardwalk is fine for kids. We were there with our son in Feb., and there other kids there as well.

We have watched several Stanley Cup Finals at ESPN Boardwalk and had a great time, even when our team lost. I recommend trying there on the Boardwalk. Oh, and War Eagle
