Superbowl

[akarmaka]

where can i watch the superbowl live here in bangkok?

[bkkjames]

if you have True Visions, I think its on Truesport 4. Probably a good chance that a local Thai station may pick it up as well.

[gotlost]

Any venue that has that red dish (UBC) ASN channel 108.

I think most of the major sporting events take place down at National Stadium, can't remember exactly where it is though, somewhere near the National Stadium BTS Station I suspect.

thanks for all the replies, but i wanted to know a public place where i can watch it, if there are any. i want the atmosphere, i can watch it at home too but it'll be quite boring.

Well with kick-off around 5am here mate not much atmosphere to be had me thinks, especially on a Monday morning. Should be a heck of a game though - come on Saints!

[akarmaka]

i think kick off is at 630 am isn't it? i was hoping i could get some breakfast too while i was at it...but yeah go colts...!

you are probably right, I was no doubt counting the 1.5 hours of pre-amble. By the way, I don't think we get the commercials here. hope we get the half time show.

About 2 years ago there were several bars in Soi Cowboy had the game and food Live and Yes, at 6:30 A.M.

Kick-off is ~ 06:25 AM, Monday 8 Feb 2010. I think the game will be on both ASN and TS4. Many places will be open for the game. Maybe take a look at bars over the next few weeks and see if one you frequent will be showing the game. Even some hotels set up special viewing rooms; I watched the 2008 Superbowl at the Westin.

I'm not sure if the half-time show (The Who) will be shown here; I think it was shown at least the last two years as far as I can remember, but it may constitute an advertisement (Bridgestone Tire Halftime Show) and thus be blocked on Truevisions?

[humbug]

the bourbon street in washington square normally has a live super bowl buffet, thats the only one i can remember

[geriatrickid]

No need to watch. The Colts are going to walk away with this.

Even Lady Gaga is backing the Colts. Doesn't she have some song where she sings My Pey, Pey, Peyton face?

And you want to be cool right? Besides Mr. Franchise is from N.O. so liking the Colts is like helping New Orleans.

Should be a good place for Saints fans, eh?

[thaihome]

I'm sure ET at Bully's will put something on.

Also Jersey Pub in between soi 6 and soi 4 Nana will be showing it.

There are a few places. Personally, I think Larry's Dive on Soi 22 will be the best place to see it. Steak and eggs breakfast and 8 flatscreen TVs so every seat in the house is a good seat. They also have a football pool that will have 40 prizes. Oh, and a tailgate party starting at 5 am.

MASH Bar Queens Park Plaza, Soi 22............. Open at 5.45am............... Beer from 55baht............ Fresh Coffee.......... Juice............. FREE Food

Big Screen........... Awesome sound system ........... and the mash girls are gonna be in early

[jdfmail]

I wonder if any of these places will broadcast something other than True/UBC. I want to see the commercials...much better than blank space. Also, hope to get the commentary between plays and the halftime show.

Phuket Gazette had a good round-up about tomoorws kick-off:

Mango Bar Soi 4 and Silver Dollar Wasington Sq ,,

I live in one of those apartments that only gets some 8 or 9 channels total. Natgeo, Discovery, CNN, Channel V (music), Star Movie, then like 4 or 5 thai-only stations. Anyone know if there's hope for me getting the superbowl? Didn't see any station called "truesport."
