Does anyone know of a bar with HD screen(s) that gets NFL Network HD to watch the Packer game on Thursday, December 21st @ 7PM vs. the Vikings?  I would prefer either North Shore or East Side of Milwaukee, but I am open to any suggestions.

Thanks.

Bring some beer and snacks and you can watch it at my house although I am on the southside near Southridge.

Thanks for the offer.  I looked at the NFL Network website and they said:

"By NFL policy, NFL Network games will also be carried on free, over-the-air television in the city of the visiting team and in the city where the game is played if it is sold out 72 hours in advance of kickoff. "

If I don't find a nearby place for HD viewing, I will watch it at home in SD.

Thanks again for the offer.

Maybe their rule only covers the city of Green Bay?  I wonder if the game will be on local OTA in Milwaukee.  Does anyone know for sure?

 in GBay & Milwaukee 'Statewide' in OTA HD........

The game will be on FOX6 but I don't know if they are carrying it in HD.  Read here:  http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=474212
