Mexico vs USA is next month and I don't have Telemundo. Will any place be showing the game?

I watched the Confederations Cup last summer in the bar at El Dorado Mexican Restaurant on Brentwood Road (nice & cheap!) and although that was on Galavision and Telefutura, I'm pretty sure their satellite package included Telemundo. And of course you could also check with the big-name sports bars like Chuck 'Em, Playmakers and Champps...

Just a word of caution, on DISH, Galavision, Univision, and Telefutura are part of the basic package and Telemundo is only available in the Raleigh area as part of the DISH Latino package. You'll definitely want to call ahead.

I remember seeing a place on Harrison Ave in Cary in the same strip mall as "The Loop" restaurant that billed itself as a Mexican restaurant & sports bar. Might be worth looking them up. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the name of the place off the top of my head.

I've had little to no luck with places like Chammps and Chuck'em for the spanish language channels (although I will say Chuck'em in Cary setup me up with HDNet for the US v. Haiti match).
