One aspect of this deal eluding me is whether it is permissible to show these MLS games in sports bars.
The NFL enforces very strict licensing for public displays of its games.
- EstesPark 3y agoI imagine smaller pubs in Italy couldn't care less about whether they are allowed to show MLS matches or not. If the HDMI cord works, it works. Just an honest thought as I've heard it from now two different individuals at two different pubs. EDIT: Just did some digging and it appears that MLS Season Pass is made available at over 300,000 restaurants and pubs in the United States alone through Direct TV. https://www.directv.com/insider/directv-for-business-and-mls-season-pass/ https://www.directv.com/insider/directv-for-business-and-mls...
- yoyoyo1122 3y agoLike every other major broadcasted sport, it's not permissible, just extremely hard to enforce. The sports leagues and networks sell specific packages for businesses.
