Where in Calgary for rugby World cup?

Question

We just emigrated to Calgary, and my husband, who is South African, really wants to watch the rugby world cup (especially South Africa). We have no tv yet, so can anyone tell us where in Calgary can he watch South Africa in the rugby world cup??

Answer 1

Setanta sports has the broadcasting rights for the RWC in North America.  You dont have a TV yet so you cant buy their in home TV channel, but that sucks anyway, with only some games live and most delayed by up to 30 hours.  They have a Broadband option to watch the games live in on your computer.

If you dont want to shell out the money for that (dont blame you) then Setanta has a premium channel that will show all the RWC games live but it is only available to businesses and bars/pubs.  You'll have to whip out the phone book and give them a call until you find one... the good news is that rugby is pretty big out in Alberta so you should find one... as long as they open up at 5-6am when the games are played.

Answer 2
