Where can I watch American Football?

There are quite a few bars / sports bars that non-stop broadcast the various sports channels.

Chaoyang is a huge area so not sure which is the closed to you but try/call some of these and ask what they are broadcasting.

The below list has been extracted from TheBeijinger's directory.

I forgot that there was a Hooters in Sanlitun...Perhaps I blocked that from my memory, the last place I would ever want to be seen while Stateside is a Hooters....

But when overseas... options change..

But we have been told that that Hooters is the height of American Culture?  Have we been misinformed?

Is it not part of the traditional Nacirema rites of passage? Each  Nacirema male child has to spend a few hours at Hooters without blushing and/or without making gestures with his hands to describe the "Flattery Operated Girls"

I haven't figured out the address  protocol.. but

our apartment is in Wanjing, Xiyuan 4 qu,  Chaoyang..

I was wandering around Lima, Peru a few years ago and found a Hooters.. I was upset that these dumps had spread to other continents..

Maybe Hooters is like a pub for the Brits except Hooters have women serving you and the Brits have old men. JW

Long story short...

I am American, my wife is Chinese, she is living in Beijing while we wait for the wheels of government to turn, and our immigration case to process...

So far this year I have spent 6 weeks in China.. my wife and I traveled to Xi'an, Hufei, HuangShan, Yellow Mountain TianJin, Hangu etc.. All of my travels in China have been when American Football is in off season I am returning to China to spend January with my wife, which coincides with the Football play-offs.

I will be in Beijing, Chaoyang from Jan 4th to Jan 28th and would like to know if any of you know a place where I can watch American Football games?

BTW our flat is in Chaoyang....I am thinking there might be a place in Sanlitun?

TIA

Internet here is relatively decent for streaming. There are few websites with acceptable video quality for most sport events, including American Football.

In Wanjing then try the ones in the Lido area Franks might be a good one for you.

LOL - You obviously have been in the wrong pubs.
