Lions in the US

[RC]

Ok, so me being me, being stuck out in the land of no rugby, I was wondering if anyone has any idea of what channels - if any - will be showing any of the lions games out in the US.
I have basic cable available to me and none of the bars near by have setanta.
There's a part of me that thinks I'm gonna have to head to NYC just to watch the tests and miss all the warm ups.

So if any of you guys can help me out I'd be very appreciative.

If your cable service isn't listed there, I suggest getting directv or setanta broadband.

Yeah, i'm thinking about going ot local rugby clubs.
The nearest one to me is about 40 minutes away...no exactly local, but i can defo watch the test matches there.
Otherwise i was thinking about doing some research and seeing what bars in NYC will be showing the game. Surely the Irish bars will show the game, no?!

definitely. quite a few places there.

i haven't been to any of these (from the link below), so wherever you're headed in nyc,
you might want to give them a call and see if the management are rugby nuts - if so, it'll definitely be on.
