UFC shedding lots of casuals with ESPN PPVs, that's for sure. Don't know how they can afford to lose the kind of casuals who pay for these 150-200K cards usually. If they are even doing that much, ESPN PPV deal might indicate otherwise.
I'm trying to order through my cable box and not working first time ever wtf
That's only supposed to be in the US. ESPN isn't a thing here. There is no ESPN Plus in Canada... This ppv is going to do terrible numbers lol
The original news about this thing said no changes to bars showing UFC.As I suspected, my local Buffalo Wild Wings where I have been watching UFC ppvs for probably 10-12 years now with friends cannot apparently get the PPV or doesn't know how. This is bs, fu Dana White.
Me too. Over and over again.I tried ordering it online and got an error page after selecting the event.
Maybe they thought Canada was part of USA and USA's ESPN+ deal.On the phone with Rogers tech support. They can't figure out why it's not working either. The tech guy says they have over 900 calls for it currently in the que
First guy I talked to say the event wasn't showing up at all on their server ....
Certainly would have probably done 3x what it will do. A lot of people don't even have internet, people could already buy it both online and on tv before. I'm not sure how having less options is going to be a good thing.Yeah, Holloway vs Poirier was going to do tremendous numbers before all of this
Huge pain in the @$S — I finally called and got an automated message saying you have to go to plus.espn.com/ufc/ppv to order. It would not work on my iPad, but I did finally get it going on my laptop just a couple of minutes ago. They didn’t seem very well prepared for this and I agree it will hurt sales.
