Interesting that they will erect a big screen outside. The NFL has sent a warning to a church in Indianapolis to not show the game on a big screen. :lookaroun http://www.wthr.com/Global/story.asp?S=6025367

The NFL is just trying to do damage control ahead of time in the event of another costume malfunction this year since the artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince is the halftime spectical.

As I understand the NFL ruling on the church showing the game, the church is not a place tht would "normally" be broadcasting the game. A bar or resturant would normally be showing the game so they can still show it. The church made the mistake of advertising their intentions, that's how they got ito trouble. GO COLTS!!!!

What? Should I ask about a "duckets"?
How about something other than the crowded ESPN zone, like the tv at 'Ohana's bar or another resort bar? It might be too much trouble to get a table at ESPN, though I would try my darndest to get one.
Is there any place in DTD that shows the bowl (I hate to call it super because it just isn't. How could you equate the NFL to NCAA Football post season madness. I'd better stop or I'll write a book.)
Just a thought.:animwink:

I agree, I think the NFL would look pretty bad for taking it to court anyway. Just a bunch of fans, who happen to go to the same church, getting together to watch their team win a game. GO COLTS!!:sohappy:
With the game starting at 6:30 pm and most of disney parks either close (AK) or getting ready to do their nighttime show (studio, MK) heading out to watch the Super Bowl at Espn/All-star might take some time to get to. Recomend that you get leave early.
I forgot what Local channels does Disney have on their in room televsion ?
(Fox, NBC, CBS, ESPN ?)
I also recomend that you check your resort front desk maybe they will rent out a big screen TV if they get enough request to do so.
I know that All Star Sport food court have a big screen TV usally tune to Espn or the Disney Channel , but other Channels is questionable?

I can't speak for the NFL or the NCAA football championships. However, I did watch my fellow classmates win the NCAA Hockey Championships at the ESPN Club (twice) - then I also saw my classmates (and people I know) riot on national TV (twice). I've also watched some World Series games at Disney World as well.
This was all at the ESPN club... getting seats only 1.5 hours in advance. I also have watched the NCAA basketball tourney (almost) every year... but the national championship game I had to get a table 2 hours in advance (and I was lucky to get a table for 2).
I have never watched the Super Bowl there, but if you are a sports fan I highly suggest that location.
To the others who don't like sports, all I can say this: sports are just like Disney... if you don't get them, then that's cool because others do. Of my 2 dozen Disney trips some of my most memorable Disney moments have taken place at the ESPN club...
Thus, it's great marketing and promotion... what else can you do for the hours before the game but eat, drink and be merry... you meet dozens of friends and foes and your memories are forever. It's truly a subculture within a subculture. :wave:

It's old news now but I thought I'd make a clarification...
It was a different church in Indianapolis than the one originally warned by the NFL that ended up showing the game.http://www.theindychannel.com/sports/10916537/detail.html
Now let's see if the NFL has enough bravado to sue this church over it.
