Any Raptors fans living in Manhattan?
Hey everybody,
I'm moving to NYC pretty soon and I'm hoping to catch most Raps games at sports bars in Manhattan. Is anybody living there that watches Raps and can recommend anything?
Thanks

Catching Raps games in Manhatten is tough.
Your only choices are a place with a ton of TVs like Bounce (which is expensive, and the people only go there to be seen), or to watch it online.
Occasionally you'll find a bar with NBA package, so if the Raps happen to play on a night when there are few other games (no MLB, NFL, other NBA, or even NHL) they may show it if you ask them for it.
As the above posters mentioned, i recommend either getting a package or finding online links to watch the games.
p.s. New York is sweet you're gonna love it

Like they say above me, it is extremely rare that you will catch a Raptor game that doesn't feature a NJ or NY franchise. You will mostly catch college football or basketball. And don't forget about hockey. People will catch a Rangers game over the disturbing basketball teams of the city right now. I have yet to see a regular pub that has multiple tvs, but everyone of them tuned in to something different.
If you find one, please let me know.

the management seemed friendly enough to change the channels to accommodate us

p.s. it's not a country club!
