watching LFC in America ?

[Molby]

Hi folks...

I apologise in advance for starting a thread on this small trivial subject...I can't find any other info on this...

I'm going to Las Vegas (on a work trip) in two weeks time; as such, I'll be there for the Swansea game on the 23rd feb.

Now, I've only ever been to USA once before, so I've no idea about TV stations etc over there (I'm from Ireland), I will have wifi access on ipad, what's my options for picking up this match?

Even better, is there such thing as a LFC supporters club who meet for matches in Central las vegas? (I'm staying near the Las Vegas convention Centre)

( mods, if this thread belongs somewhere else, or can be merged with another, please do so...)

Cheers

Sorry fella, most of the Casino's with sports books will carry the game, especially if its on Fox. Failing that try the Crown and Anchor on Tropicana, crap pub but decent ale, plus they alway's carry Sam Adams, try Blondies in the miracle mile shops . Last time I went I managed to watch the game in the NineFineIrishman in NewYorkNewYork as it happened to be where I was staying - **** beer though although, at 9 in the morning I'm not sure you will too fussed.

A decent concierge at your hotel will find out where is showing it,

Qiock edit - Just noticed its a 1:30 kick off, thats a 5:30 am kick off - At that time try the Casino sports books or casino bars. Most should carry it.

All Premier League matches are shown live on NBC Sports Network (or a related affiliate), so there shouldn't be any trouble finding a place that is showing the match.

The Crown and Anchor on Tropicana looks to be the place to go. It's open 24 hours, which I suppose isn't too unusual in Vegas, but important because the match will be on at what looks like 5:30am local time.

Looks like it's a short cab ride from the Convention Center area.

Of course, you could always just wake up, turn the hotel tv on and watch it in bed and have room service bring you breakfast.
