I grew up in New York and now live in Atlanta. I want to watch the Giants on Sunday. I am forced to watch the Falcons and, possibly, the Panthers instead. The only legal way I know to watch out-of-market games is by using the Dish Network NFL Sunday Ticket. I looking into that. It is $300 for NFL Sunday Ticket. But, I have to have Dish Network. I did check. I did call. Because I am in a market where Dish can be installed, I cannot get NFL Sunday Ticket without also having Dish Network. The installation in my area is $450 for a new Dish installation. I know that Dish install and service is higher in Atlanta than other areas, but that isn't the issue here. Then, it is around $100/month for the minimum service. But, the minimum service doesn't qualify for NFL Sunday Ticket. I have to get the $175/month service to qualify to purchase NFL Sunday Ticket. Also, I cannot actually get a monthly subscription. In my area, I have ot purchase a minimum 3-year contract to get started, but if I want the higher plan, which allows me to get the NFL service, I have to go for the 5-year contact. I haven't started the process, so I don't know about all the other fees that will come along: Initiation fee, turn-on fee, consultation fee, service tax, dish tax, etc... So... Is there a legal alternative? Right now, it appears that the only legal alternative is to move back to New York during the football season. 97.82.165.112 ( talk) 13:38, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
