Subject: World Cup/U.S. West Coast/British Columbia


  Posted by: Tree - [599393013] Tue, Jun 18, 2002, 13:46

so, my brother, not a sports fan at all, decided to get married during the World Cup. He lives in rural western canada (Texada Island)...

what i'm trying to find out is:
1. If the USA game will be on the radio Friday morning, as i'll be driving up from Seattle to BC that morning, in the wee hours, most likely while the game is on.

2. Where on the TV dial i might find World Cup matches while I'm in BC?

i'm leaving thursday afternoon this week, so any quick help is greatly appreciated! :o)

thanks,

Tree

The replays for the quarter final can't be right - US/Ger will be shown live for sure then probably replayed at noon with Eng/Brazil replayed at 10am and 4pm - i am not sure about the replay schedule (all times EST)

subtract 3hrs for Pacific Time.

Radio: doubtful - you may want to scan thru the AM channels.
