OT: Where to watch UConn in London?

[Husky Dogma]

I'm in London for work and decided to stay over the weekend. I'd like to catch the game on Saturday but don't know where to go. It looks like Passyunk Avenue will play NCAA games (not sure if that’s men only) but I can’t find “the” UConn pub. Any pointers or advice is greatly appreciated!

I have been overseas for a number of 'important' US sporting events and it is very tough - at least in a big city like London you may have a chance for the daytime USA games - the night time events mean start times of 0-dark-thirty.

My suggestion, visit various sports pubs between now and game time and talk to the manager/bar tenders and see if they can/will put the games on. And troll the internet to see if any streaming UK sport site carries them.

I was in Malta for the Atlanta/NE super bowl, and couldn't find anywhere - ended up waking at 4 AM to follow the incredible comeback online. And was in Vietnam for the Seattle/NE SB with some local Seattle fans - a friend of one of them opened his bar predawn so we could watch on satellite.

It’s on ESPN, so you might get lucky.

Do you have any streaming subscriptions that will carry the game? I’ve used this in London earlier this year.

And as another option, though it wouldn’t be the same as watching it live, almost every Husky game replay gets posted on YouTube.

I'll try to stream the game from my hotel room. It's not the same as watching it in public with other Huskies, but a good alternative. I'm pretty disciplined about not checking scores, so as a last resort, I'll look for a replay on YouTube. Thanks for all the suggestions!!!
