    Greaser going camping this wkend, need help from tech saavy guys to watch CFB

    Ok... bi-annual father/sons camping trip with pals who also have sons.

    We booked a non-electric camp site in a place where my sprint phone will not get service.

    Here is my idea... purchase a pre-paid verizon hot-spot (seems verizon will have a signal based on research), watch on imac or ipad....

    Will the hotspot work with my wifi-only ipad?

    Other ideas are welcome. I could really use some SBR ingenuity here.

    Please advise. This is serious.

    Might have hosed yourself. But It's camping

    Only option is try to pick a signal and watch the games on your phone like Lewis & Clark did

    Fukk somebody I work with told me you can get a prepaid hotspot from verizon, but not the case, 2yr contract

    Looks like it's checking scores on phone and listening to IU Maryland game on the radio only.

    I remember coming back from Yellowstone and having no reception on anything. Hit the dial on the radio and it just went around & around. Finally stopped for lunch at the first sign of civilization and watched some of the game.

    Maybe you need to go on an extended beer run? DVr what you want to watch. Radio isn't bad when everyone else listens to it. If someone has the Sirius app problem solved if they have reception. If not, one weekend won't kill you. Just don't wipe your ass with poison oak

    Have a good time, brother. Will you be bettin from your Cell phone?

    I went to FLA once with my ex and took all my bettin paraphernalia and didn't break stride with my sports betting.

    Just popped up as I was typing that the FBI is going to renew its investigation into the corrupt one.

    Anyway, if your going to the White Mountains have a great time, the foliage is excellent.

    I'll be honest, this sounds like the worst possible weekend imaginable.

    Jesus, at least schedule this kind of nonsense when it's not football season.

    Best of luck.
