    Hey, are any of you fans in New York? I'm looking to meet up with some Israel fans and watch the remaining qualifying games when they're on. In particular, I'd love to meet up at a bar for the Greece game on March 28th. It's at 2 PM on a Saturday, so work shouldn't be a concern for most of you. Drinks and rooting for Israel in their biggest game in a long time! Let me know if you guys already know of an Israel-friendly bar. Later!

    Are you sure the 8:00 start is live? Looking at what local time the game would start at 2:00 makes more sense.
    I live near New York City but don't go to bars to watch games.

    if it was at 8ET then it would be on tape delay obviously, since israel is 7 hours ahead of us....having it at 2 or 2:30 or something like that sounds more correct for a live broadcast because it would be 9 there and thats around when they might start the game.

    The game is slated for 21:00 Israeli time, so that would be 9pm there which would be 2:00 pm here.

    Does anyone know of places to watch the match live?

    Why go to a pub or a swarma house to see the game?

    Go to Israel and then Greece and check it out.
    im trying to do that right now!

    hey,

    I'm absolutely down for meeting. anyone know of a good place? I might be able to get something going at the St. John's law school. See if I can get the Jewish Law Student group and the Hellenic Law Student group to both sponsor something.

    My friends planned it for a while and I'm sure they did their home work, also I called 12126962337 and they said that the game is on.
