    Watching Ireland v Macedonia in Las Vegas??

    Anyone know of somewhere I can watch the game on Saturday?
    Searched for a few Irish bars but not sure how 'Irish' they are so I don't know if they'll be showing the game.
    Since it will be 11.45am local time I dont fancy running around town looking for somewhere and missing the action.

    If you search las vegas on this forum you should see it.

    No the Fado in Las Vegas is closed down. Only two places close to the strip that show Ireland games are this place http://www.mcmullansirishpub.com or the Crown and Anchor (English pub but a lot of Irish go in to watch the games)

    I'd posted this on the Macedonia squad thread but might as well put it here as well.

    ESPN3.com will work if your cable TV company is signed up with ESPN. Time-Warner, Verizon and the larger providers are signed up but you might need a username and password.

    For TV coverage in the real world you are going to struggle in Vegas. Premium Sports Inc (the old Setanta USA) have the rights and according to their website there is nowhere within a 100 mile radius currently showing the game. http://www.premiumsportsinc.com/venues.html

    There is a sentence at the top of that webpage where they say to contact them if you can't find anywhere showing the match.

    As the clocks have already gone forward here in the US the match will be kicking off at 12.45 in Vegas and 3.45pm on the East Coast.

    It's Vegas - less time in the leaba and more time at the blackjack tables......

    You're unfortunate that most Saturdays at that time there's nothing on but the College basketball 'March Madness' takes over

    You could try e-mailing the Sporting house which has about 12 screens showing different events. its in the NYNY hotel 9formely the ESPN zone). If you can tell them what channel its on, they might help you

    If you can't find a venue showing the game then make sure you have use of a computer. The hotel you are staying in should have use of multiple PC's and you could watch the game on those (once watched an EPL game on a computer in a library down the Jersey Shore). Follow EastTerracers instructions. You should definetly be able to watch ESPN3.com in Las Vegas. And the great thing is they repeat the game in full a couple of times over a 48 hour period if you get completely wasted and can only remember the national anthems.
