Default Watching football in Vancouver NOW?

Hi there,

We live in Germany but are on holiday in Vancouver at the moment.

Since we're jetlagged and up already we might as well watch the last game of the season.

Can anyone recommend a pub that is open at 8 a.m. and will show some of the games?
Are particularly looking for United playing Hull.

Thanks in advance!

The lamplighter in gastown is usually a good bet - its also the regular hangout for the man u supporters club of vancouver. I watched the man u wigan match there last week.

Don't really know mate, but if you find the Rangers sopporters club you'll be sure to have a championees party!

You should be able to get the game on tv no problem, try channel 9 or 45, it's not the same without a beer but it's better than nowt.
