Where to watch the NFL

[jamdisney]

We'd like to watch an NFL preseason game the evening of Saturday, 8/22. ESPN Club at Disney's Boardwalk is under renovation with limited food options and my schedule has us at Universal that day anyway. Is there anywhere that we can see the game, either in a hotel restaurant or at CityWalk?

NBA city will be your best bet. They play all sports on the TVs not just NBA (especially since NBA off season). Any of the other restaurants that have bars would probably be fine too(Hard Rock Cafe, Margarittaville, Bubba Gump) just sit at the bar and ask them to put the game on if they don't have it on already.

If you have a car, there is a Millers Ale House right across the street from Universal and they will definitely have it

Thanks very much to both of you!

Thanks, Mermaid. Apparently NBA City permanently closes on the 16th, so if we decide to stay in the immediate area, which I believe we're leaning towards, it's really helpful to know that we can find the game at Finnegans.

You are welcome. I just realized you said evening. The parks close at 9 pm. I am not sure at what time is the game. So if it is after 9, then Citywalk or Ale House right across the street will be your best bet.

Jake's at Royal Pacific has TVs and always had on games. You could take the boat from CityWalk to RP and keep your car at CityWalk to avoid paying extra for RP parking. Not sure what time the garage closes though.

The Salty Fish bar at Portofino has several tvs where they play the games and are open late. . .
