Tickets for the game are still available, but will cost you between $1600 and $237,000.http://www.ticketexchangebyticketmaster.com/NFL/InventoryBrowse/Super-Bowl-Tickets-at-Dolphin-Stadium-in-Opa-Locka?PID=505575&intcmp=tm104190&wt.mc_id=NFL_LEAGUE_TIX_SB&extcmp=NFL_League_SB44 If you want to watch the game at home, the television network CBS will be carrying the game at 6:25 pm, Eastern time.http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/superbowl
But what if you want to watch the game online? What are your options? CBS will not be providing live streaming of the game, because the sponsors who are paying millions of dollars for advertising time would not be able to make use of the online video. But even though there is no official streaming, you can still find ways to watch the game over the Internet.
There are three options available for you to watch the Super Bowl online. First, you can contact your cable or satellite provider. Second, you can make use of a Slingbox. The third option involves downloading available videos of the game.
Step 1: Check With Your Cable or Satellite Provider
The first option you have for watching the Super Bowl online is to contact your local cable television or satellite provider. Some satellite companies and cable television providers offer free online access to certain channels.
This means that if you have a television package that includes CBS's expanded channel line, you might be able to have free online access for viewing the game on your computer. Before you contact your cable company, be sure that your internet connection is at least DSL speed.
If you have Comcast cable service, you can contact the company anytime by submitting your question through the customer service page on the website. You can also call the customer service department on the telephone or by e-mail.http://www.comcast.com/Corporate/Customers/contactus/ContactUs.html
If you have DirecTV, you can contact customer service through the website, by email or you can use the Answer Center to get a quick response to your question. If you prefer to call over the telephone, general support operators are available from 8:00 AM to 1:00 AM, Eastern Time, seven days a week.http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/contact_us?
For AT&T digital TV customers, online support and customer service can be reached through the website by entering the telephone number on your account or your home's zip code.http://www.att.com/
Step 2: Use a Slingbox
The second option for viewing the Super Bowl online is to use a Slingbox. A Slingbox is a device that connects to your television receiver. The television signal is then streamed over the Internet to your computer or even to your mobile phone.
This means that using a Slingbox will allow you to watch the same programming on your computer that you can view on your television, including the Super Bowl and any other sporting event. The biggest draw of using a Slingbox is that you can use it to watch your television programming anywhere you can find an Internet connection, even if you leave home.http://www.slingbox.com/go/slingbox-solo
If you prefer to watch the big game on your computer in high definition, you can buy a Slingbox Pro HD. This version of the Slingbox streams video in HD to your computer for clearer viewing. Note: To use any of the Slingbox models, you will need to have a digital video recorder (DVR), a digital cable box, or a DVD player.
To purchase a Slingbox, you can order one through the product website. You can also buy one at CompUSA, Fry's, or Best Buy. Most of these stores also provide live demonstrations of how the system works.
Step 3: Download the Super Bowl
Your third option for watching the Super Bowl online is to download videos and highlights that may be available after the game is over. CBS Sports will most likely have many clips and highlights of the game and the halftime show that will be added to the network website for viewing.http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/superbowl
ESPN is another good website for catching game clips afterward. The website usually provides highlights, analysis and commentary of the big game.http://espn.go.com/nfl/superbowl The best site to visit for Super Bowl highlights will be the official Super Bowl XLIV website. The NFL will make many of the game's best moments available for viewing immediately following the game.http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/44 You can also check YouTube for home-made highlight reels, but these are usually taken down for being in violation of the NFL.
Disclaimer: Mahalo does not condone downloading illegal audio or video content.
Some people may choose to view the game online by downloading a Super Bowl Torrent after the game. A torrent is a file that allows peers to share very large files with each other by dividing the file into several small downloads that are then viewed as a whole. Because the file is broken down into smaller pieces, the file is more easily downloaded to a user's computer.http://www.ehow.com/about_4673906_what-torrent-file.html
Some torrents are illegal in certain parts of the world and are often morally wrong as well. Be sure to check file legality carefully before downloading any torrent file to your computer.
