Any help would be greatly appreciated (by both me and my father).
On April 5th there's as rugby union match my Dad thinks he can't afford to miss. It'll be on Sky Sports (British ESPN), but since ESPN aren't showing it we're kind of stuck for ideas as to where to see it. Dad's willing to take time out of his day and meet up with us later, but since we're offsite we're not too sure what to do. Any suggestions would be really great.
Thanks in advance and have a great day.:mickey:

You could email/call ESPNZone and ask them if they can pick up SkySports. I doubt it, but with the number of international visitors to WDW, you never know. That would let him watch it at the Boardwalk. The ONLY other options would be either to check with the pub in England in Epcot and see if they broadcast SkySports or (and this is the most likely scenario) watch online. SkySports has its own website and it you do a google search for "watch rugby online" you'll see several options. This is moot if you don't bring a laptop with you, but those are the only options I could come up with.

If by offsite, you mean you are staying offsite, you might also check with the hotel, or hotels in the area. There is (or at least was) a sports bar at the big Marriott across I-4 from WDW.

I'll bet there is somewhere in Orlando you can find to watch the game - there are rugby watching groups all over the US.

my best guess would be either England in the Pub or the ESPN Zone.
Good luck
