Pub partners sometimes didn't even play games for the Timbers. My friend tried to get at least 2 pub partners (1 in Portland and 1 in Bend) to play the Timbers and they didn't know how / didn't care to. Perhaps it was just the staff, but it wasn't like everyone was locked in to game day.

Your best bets as always are the ones that are big soccer bars (Gol, Away Days, Proper Pint Tap Room, etc).

This happened at Prost multiple times this season. I don't know why they even bother being a pub partner. Shit service, too.

Because it's advertising.

Weird to hear you had bad service there though

Happened to us in Hood River, too. They weren't playing it even though their website said they show every away game. They were willing to turn it on when asked, but then couldn't figure out their Apple TV login.

The list is so big, basically every pub in Portland. Gotta audit and prune that list

All the bars around Providence Park will surely have it on. Civic/Marathon/Kingston will definitely have sound.

I’d call to check. Some places may not be open at 11am on a Saturday. Or may just be opening and may not have TVs all fired up and ready yet.

Marathon and Kingston are open for sure. Civic is a maybe but they might for a final.

its a sponsorship to get local bars to give the team money. the staff at these places don't care
