I shot an email to 360 asking why the game is not available when it cannot be seen here. So far no reply.

FYI I am in Houston.
I called the ESPN3 customer support. They told me the region of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Mississippi is blacked out for regional coverage rights.

I asked why because my market doesn't have the station to view the game. All they told me is that is what it said when he looked it up.

You think the Rant knows anything about blackouts?


225rumpshaker just minutes before finding out the game is blacked out where he lives.

Just called the customer service # in the canned emailed response from the ESPN 3 feedback. Spoke with a guy who is going to check to see if the balckout is due to technical issues or contractual. Take it for what it's worth. If contractual, my guess is we call CST and figure out why the largest LSU alumni bases outside of LA are blacked out.

this... How the hell do you order CST n hTown? FTR I'm visiting relatives n Clear Lake

ETA: if it's not available on the major cable provider it shouldn't be considered a CST market


I don't understand what is going on with this. I went to the hooters in Seabrook just hoping they might have the game. The manager said they do have dish network and they do have cst. Yet they tried for a half hour to find the game but had no luck.

I ended up coming home and listening to it online. This sucks.
