I’m moving to the St Pete area in June from Ohio. Are Dolphin’s games localized on tv in that area. Or am I still gonna need “the ticket”? Or what about a Dolphins bar? Any help would be appreciated.
Welcome to my favorite city in the world! I've been here for over 15 years now after coming from Illinois.
It seems that 90% of Dolphins games are aired locally in Tampa/STP but I still like having NFL ticket so I am not forced to watch games outside of Miami's time slot that I don't care about.
I have not found any exclusive "Dolphin" bars but you can watch downtown at Fergs. It's a huge open air bar with indoor and outdoor seating. It's right next to Tropicana field (and the Police station).
You can also go to Gulfport which is just right down the road and on the ocean/beach. I go to a "roof top" bar called Manatees. It's covered and they have 5 or 6 games on at all times. Great views. It is a cool little town on the water full of shops, restaurants and bars.
If you need any area/neighborhood advice, let me know. I would be glad to help.
