What is the cell service like at War Memorial? Will I be able to stream ESPN while tailgating on Saturday?

For some reason, even with union, I get terrible data service.

The towers around the stadium don't do a great job of keeping up with all the mobile devices from the crowd. I've never tried to stream anything in the parking lot, but know that once you get into the game you'll have about enough bandwidth to text and that's it.

I could barely get updates on my phone regarding scores. I can't imagine streaming content would work but before the game with less devices it may work

Not if you have Verizon.

it's spotty at times to say the least sometimes I can't even get a text to go out then I can check scores ok, it just depends but when the tower gets 30,000 plus overloading it I guess it' takes a bit but we are Wyoming LOL

My AT&T usually works pretty well. Verizon does not. I think they get a little overloaded as that's by far the most popular provider in Wyoming. Can't speak to streaming though, never tried it.

I'm on Verizon and was at the stadium last weekend in the west stands. I wanted to catch the stats of the game and i could barely get anything to work. I saw a few WAP's nearby, but they were protected.

I wouldn't count on doing much besides texting. I had a hard time sending and recieving texts. Same with phone calls.
