Can we talk about how people are watching the Pels?

Go to Wal-Mart or Best Buy, get a cheap antenna and watch it for free like every other 504 boy

We should've have to do that if we are paying for a service. Just more proof that the Pels brass sucks. Just imagine the uproar if people had to go through these hoops to watch a Saints game.

I get it with my Fubo subscription in Gonzales. No chance in hell I would pay to watch this product

It's a cheap arse antenna. This isn't difficult.

If my choices were buy a $25 antenna and watch games for free, or pay $100/month for a bunch of different streaming services just so i can watch my local teams, i'll go jump through those hoops of screwing in a cable into the back of my tv and hanging up and antenna.

Only poor people watch games live. Why the frick can't I stream and DVR a Pelicans game in 2025 when I live 30 minutes from the arena?

How are you watching the Pels on DirecTV? I get a message saying that I do not have access to Pels games on that 676-6 channel even though I am in the right viewing area.

Pelicans+, $99 of the season

I am curious how you'd prefer the pels provide their games.

Currently, you have options:
1. OTA for free with attenna anywhere in LA, MS, or AL

2. Pay 99 dollars per season to get every game streaming on any device in those 3 states on Pelicans+ (note: if you are a season ticket holder they emailed a coupon to get this for free)

3. Receive the game as part of your cable bundle on any of these providers: Cox, Charter, Mediacom, Fubo, DirecTV or DirecTV Stream, Uverse


They have pretty much covered every base. The only major one they haven't really is YoutubeTV, which is where I am guessing most complaints originate from.


However, that's not a Pelicans problem. YoutubeTVs business model does not carry local RSNs anymore. Nationally, they have 2 RSNs left: the Bay Area RSN and Philidelphia RSN. That's it.

YTV doesn't want them, and only has these 2 left because they are owned by NBC and they bundle it into their NBC carriage deal. NBC is looking to get rid of them, and once they do they will be gone from YTV

So if the issue is that you want it on YTV, well, that's not likely going to happen. And it is not a Pels issue.

The games are as accessible as ever now!

I pay monthly for the app so I can cut it off when I give up. Have had no issues. Way more dependable than the Bally's app.
