4dabirds Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) The game is blacked out in the Orlando market, which means it is blacked out on Sunday Ticket as well. Anyone have any online links? Edited September 23, 2011 by 4dabirds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl927 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Well, there's always pirated video is illegal. You might try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4dabirds Posted September 23, 2011 Author Share Posted September 23, 2011 I am looking for a legal alternative that I can pay for on a one time basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl927 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Sorry. I think the blackout rules prohibit anything legal. You could get on stub hub and snag a 300 level seat for under 30 bucks. It's way better than any choppy pirated computer feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerosmith67 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Thanks! That's very helpful. Just an FYI you can't post links here that contain pirated video..IE links for the Falcons game that you're asking for. Might want to try emailing someone if you want to do something illegal.

Finally Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I am looking for a legal alternative that I can pay for on a one time basis.How could there be legal option if the game is blacked out in your area? You either buy a ticket or you are out of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adub Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 If I lived in Orlando I'd just drive over to Tampa and buy a ticket. You get a chance to see the Falcons live. Cant beat that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFanSince1970 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Sunday Ticket games dont get blacked outThey do if the stadium's not sold out.I agree with the other posters.Drive over there and buy a $30 ticket.Probably a better value than what you'll spend $30 on this week.

You either buy a ticket or you are out of luck.That's why I am asking the question. I don't live in the Orlando or Tampa areas (I live in Atlanta), but I do have to travel for a business related matter, and I am unable to attend the game in Tampa, because I'll be in the Daytona area at the time of the game.

4dabirds Posted September 23, 2011 Author Share Posted September 23, 2011 Sunday Ticket games dont get blacked outYes they do. I just called Direct TV about it, and if a game is blacked out in a local market then it is also blackout on Sunday Ticket in that same market.

Carl927 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I used to live in the area a million years ago. You might try driving up the coast and hitting a sports bar near Jacksonville where it isn't blacked out. Takes about an hour and a half, tho.

Takes about an hour and a half, tho.Unfortunately the blackout radius is bigger than 100 miles there. Most of the state relies on TV programming that comes out of Orlando. But yes, that will be my best bet and no guarantee, because Jacksonville is about 70 miles, where as Tampa is 122. Only bad thing is timing. I won't be arriving until about 3:00 in the afternoon. Oh well, I'll just have to make something work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O-TownFalcon Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Yeah, I've run into the game being blacked out in the local market with DirecTV. I think it's crap considering one pays so much for the service. I think all your alternatives have been mentioned here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl927 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) Ugh. Sorry to hear about your business trip killing the game. Edited September 23, 2011 by Carl927 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adub Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I can sympathize, business travel has screwed up my Falcons game days before as well. You mentioned that you live in Atlanta. You could always buy a sling box for your DVR and shoot it over the internet to yourself. I have mine set up so I can watch the Falcons on my Phone, iPad or Laptop just in case :-)When I was living in Seattle I had an extra DVR and Sling box at my parents house here in Atlanta so I got to see Falcons games.

Carl927 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 If you're serious about watching the game anywhere, perhaps you might get a tv tuner and record it to your home pc, then PIRATED VIDEO IS ILLEGAL it to your laptop via remote desktop.

I have found an alternative, apparently Palm Coat gets Jacksonville stations, so I'm going to Palm Coast which is just a few miles up the road. Thanks for your help.
