Security Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Or I can go to the sports bar for games not shown on TV (usually get 2 Bills games a year on normal TV) and pay a hell of a lot less Do you not drink? If I go to the bar I spend at least $50. Then my wife wants to go too. So that is $85. DTV is like $240 for the Sunday Ticket, 340 for the sunday ticket Max. $240 for 16 games is like 3 beers at the bar, 15 bucks, it is way more economical to buy the sunday ticket and watch at home.
Dorkington Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 None that live in a place inaccessible by DirecTV. Also looked at the list of universities and my daughter goes to one which is not on that list. Does she live in dorms? I bet if you enter her address, it'll work. It's at least worth a few keystrokes

Exactly. I understand not getting loaded. But then you're also not eating any food in the thick of the lunch rush. So yeah, you could go to a sports bar 14 times and sip water for three and a half hours. #serversdream Otherwise, good luck chilling at a bar for three and a half hours and NOT spending $15...which would be cheaper than $200 to watch at home.
Heitz Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 This has been available for the past few year, but they have changed it a bit every year - and have changed the pricing every year. FWIW, I've signed up and they have never verified that I can get DTV (which I can't thanks to my stupid condo board and a Dish Network deal they have). Stoked to see that it's back on PS4 - I thought that would be killed for sure with the Microsoft deal. Too bad they're not offering the Madden bundle this year, that was amazing! As for the cost, I live in VT and get at least two games (NE) if not more, plus I go to one game (NE this year) and I'm on the road at events for three or four other games and I STILL think its worth the money! Never know when you might need to stream the Bills game to a device. I remember standing on the main street in Waikiki last year at 9am watching a game on my phone. One should NEVER be without their Bills!!

True but I am sure one will get loaded at home and eat at home while watching the Bills games as well...to me the cost isn't that big of a difference as long as you don't go crazy when going to a sports bar to watch the Bills..

And again, over a three and a half hour span, one need not go "crazy" to rack up a $15 tab, which would be the limit if you wanted to see 14 games at a bar for roughly the cost of the DTV package...per the original assertion.
RyanC883 Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 Well, I could get in through madden code last year, but this year I am ineligible. So, whatever, I got Direct TV. Will prob catch 10 games on it. Looking forward to being able to watch at home.
