lvbillzfan Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Hey everyone. I'm going to Cinci but not to the game (no ribbing please). I'm sure the game is blacked out but I have the Sunday ticket. Does anyone know what I need to do to connect my lap top to the TV so we can watch it like that. I don't know what type of TV (I think Sharp - pretty new). Thanks for the help -- GO BILLS !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfaninvgs Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Cant you just buy a really cheap ticket and enjoy it in person? Some TVs/Computers hook up with HDMI some require a DVI cable (i think thats what it is called..) you can get them at Best Buy or Frys if there is one in the area. I think Target and Walmart carry them also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will allow you to connect to the TV and watch the game. Previous poster is correct that it also could be a DVI but that's more for monitors than TV's. So good luck!

I think Target and Walmart carry them also Fair Warning: If you do go to a store to buy a cable, find the cheapest one they have. Upper-echelon cables for use in digital data transmission (HDMI/DVI) will not give you any better performance than that of the bargain basement brand.

If you do the superfan to go I think you get all the games because its based on where u live.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
