    Bowl Game Watch at Epcot?

    Poor planning by my bride has resulted in us being at Epcot on the 30th during the bowl game. Anyone know if there is a sports bar kind of atmosphere on the property there that might carry the game?

    If you wait until the last minute.....it only takes a minute.

    The Boardwalk resort is a very short walk out the back entrance of EPCOT. There is a sports bar at the Boardwalk called ESPN club and I'm sure they will have the game on since game is on ESPN.

    I am in the same boat, but we will be at Busch Gardens in Tampa and I am sure they won't have the game on. I can feel the lunch I eat that day making my stomach rumble already.

    If your staying there for NYE it's pretty awesome but the crowd level is very high. My parents and I went there two years ago for NYE and an average wait was like 2 hours. Best experience so far though on NYE. I would also suggest ESPN zone in Boardwalk. Walk there from by the France Pavilion or get a boat. Takes like 5 minutes.

    I would go to House of Blues in the area that I think they call Disney Downtown (which is actually outside the ticketed Disney parks). I've watched sports events there when there wasn't a band playing.

    There may be some ESPN related place inside a park.

    This too, it's further away, but it's free. And if your going with a group your wife can go shop around the nice places and you can watch the game. Things for kid's to do there as well. It's probably a 15 minute bus ride from EPCOT.

    There is a "Cirq du Sole" (pardon the spelling) type of thing there also.

    Disney Quest is also there, which is a huge arcade place. Went there when I was like 10 and enjoyed myself.
