NCAA football on TV in Colombia

Hey I will be in Colombia around the new year and am hoping to be able to catch the NCAA college football national championship on TV (Jan 4, 2006). I'm thinking I may be in Medellin or Cartegena around that time but not sure. How easy is it to catch college football on TV at bars in Colombia?

It´s very hard unfortunately Feel free to help me out and contact Direc TV and at:

servicioalcliente at directvla.com.co

and strongly suggest to them that there´s subscriptors in Colombia who would pay top dollar to subscribe to the packages already available in the states such as: NBA League Pass, NCAA Football & Basketball, NHL and some of the different ESPN channels like ESPN U.

Right now they offer NFL sunday ticket with all the games available, MLB package with up to 8 games a day and you get 1 or 2 NBA games on ESPN and 2 more weekly via TNT

They did just offer their first pay per view boxing event down here as well.

thx

there is a way for everything For all of you americans just dying for your american television take a look at this site. www.slingbox.com But anyway your question depends who is broadcasting it. If ABC has it then it will be on espn deportes otherwise forget it.

DirecTV You can also opt to susbcribe to DirecTV in PR, where you'll get ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX. You just have to change that little card thingie.
