Going to be in Gatlinburg, TN for the opener. Any idea where a good sports bar is at around those parts? Pigeon Forge area too.

Don't recall the name but it's at the very end of the strip before you go into the park. Across from Calhoun's.

There is a good wings place at the Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg exit on I-40. It's around the corner from Bass Pro shops on Outdoors Sportmans Pl.. Plenty of big screens, cold beer and wings.

Their name was Smoky Mountain Wngs and I saw where they closed back on January 31st of this year.

There's usually some guys that stream videos. But you can get a couple tickets for $30 so just buy the tickets online and go see the game in person.

This is what I do, works perfect. The game will be on ESPN3, but it is blacked out if you're in TN, however you can redirect your IP address so it looks like you aren't in TN

Goto Free VPN Service | Free VPN Software - Hotspot Shield VPN and download the FREE version. Once installed, close your browser and activate hotspotshield. This will run your IP address through a proxy server typically in NY or CA. Thus when you log in to ESPN3, their servers see you as a user in one of those states and thus the game will not be blacked out.

Once the game is over, I uninstall hotspotshield. There's no reason to go to some website ran out of some Eastern Bloc country with 1,000s of pop-ups

I posted 2 links of sites that people can use to watch for free. No installation of anything needed.

It never has been in HD and I doubt it is this year.

It's been produced in HD the last three years, but most cable systems do not have the capacity to retransmit it in HD. There were a few systems that put it on their HD PPV channel that they use for WWE and UFC last year.

Gotcha. I have U-Verse and it hasn't been broadcasted in HD.

Thank goodness. It had gotten comically bad.

It was usually Bob Bell or Randy Smith I believe. I'm surprised ol' Bob could broadcast long enough without having to take a drag off of a cigarette. Randy Smith was just awful.

I wish Pat Ryan still did the Titans games with Mike Keith. Wycheck sounds like Mushmouth from Fat Albert.

I'm not a fan either, but at least he's an actual play by play guy. The past few years, the PPV broadcast teams have been wretched.

I prefer the wretched, makes for good comedy.

Keith is impossible to listen to in my opinion.
