Heads Up - NO JOE VISION TOMORROW!

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

Just got word from my rep that there will be no Joe Vision due to what he thinks is NBC and the rights to showing it. He said they do not want it shown due to the NBA Finals already taking viewers from them. Something to due with home viewers. NBC is becoming an issue.

Yeah, the TV coverage would be on CBC, not NBC.

I just got off the phone. No Joe Vision. No deal with CBC. Unofficial viewing party is at Hockeytown Cafe. Other season ticket holders, please confirm with your reps to make sure word gets out. Just trying to save a lot of people time tomorrow. :)

Yeah I just talked to my rep as well, and personally this sucks what NBC is doing. I am going to go to my favorite watering hole and watch it there.

So if we all do that we can protest NBC as well as putting a little bit of money back into the southeast Michigan economy. :)

Why is it they can broadcast it outside the igloo, but we can't do it in the joe? Is it because we charge $5 per seat?

that was versus... this is NBC

Weren't the first couple of games on Versus? If so, that may be why.

That is the most idiotic thing I've ever heard. We ALWAYS had joe vision and if they even dare to show it outside the arena in pitts I swear I will NEVER watch NBC again. Who gives them the right to do that? Joe Vision is a tradition...the boys can't win if I'm not at Joe Vision they never have. Ugh!

Guess I'll be listening to it on the Radio 97.1 I'll rather not see the boys then give NBC the pleasure to be able to use me as a count.

As of now, there will be no screen outside the Mellon. However, hockeybuzz.com says that NBC is reconsidering for Pittsburgh due to emails they've received.. and also a little bribing, offering free advertising on the website.

Here's the link.

This is bulls***, they did joe vision last year, NBC is screwing us as well as other fans. The money goes to charity too. Guess watch the game at the bar.

Instead of emailing saying the Pens shouldn't have a screen outside complain about NBC saying no to Joe Vision. If they feel the anger from not just Pens fans and Wings fans then they might (very slim chance) allow both.

The thing is not everyone can afford to go to the bar and spend money there. That's the good thing about Joe Vision you pay the $5 and that's all you spend that nite.

Someone should call up pittsburgh and ask if they are gonna have the screen outside.

Why is everyone turning this into a Pitt v Detroit thing. NBC has said they won't be doing it at either location, as of now at least. Email and call if we want this to change.
