D212...I think there is a restaurant at the "Top of the Baths" that has a sat TV. On the other hand...if you are Packer Fans...why ruin a perfectly good vacation with bad news!! (g)

Change your plans to go to the Bitter End or Saba Rock in North Sound, I'm pretty sure they will be showing the game - they had games on in November when I was there.

Don't bet on it (bad news for the Packers). The WX forecast is horrible....Brett's kinda WX :-))

BTW, I heard that 500,000 people (that's not a typo) will be TAILGATING at Lambeau Field!

Ironically, here in Seattle - a news story where a local company got an upstart in business due to the Seahawks loosing - they make foam products and got contracted to make cheese head hats (packers) for the next game... go figure...

I watch the games any where I can get internet. I have a Slingbox attached to my cable in Florida w/a DSL line. I recieve my cable TV anywhere there is WiFi. Of course it costs to have the cable in an empty condo (~$10/mo) and a DSL (~$19/mo) but I sold half of my season tickets since I would be out of the country (@$300/game) so its free.

Sorry guys, misread the OP, thought somebody was trying to organize a "poker" game.
On the other hand, who are the "packers", and why would anyone want to watch them?

He's not really in Spain! Unless, that is, it's been moved to another planet :-)
