It cost a tv station money, to broadcast a game, especially live from another country.  They're not going to just 'dole out' money where no one is going to watch.  They'll lose money, as advertisers aren't going to sponsor the broadcast.

did you ever think that the cost outweighs the available sponsor money, it certainly seems that not many people outside T&T and Guatemala are interested in the game, World Cup Qualifier or not.

Yow Supporter,  all US National team games are aired on ESPN 2.  All.  For the Guate game, you will have to find a Latin bar in an area where a lot of Central Americans live.

For the people in the Washington DC metropolitian area, check the place next to The Settings on University Boulevard in Langley Park, MD.  (close to the intersection of Roggs Road and University Blvd.)  If Trini winning, ride early!   ;D

Perhaps the national team isn't very popular right now?  Why don't you call TV6 and ask them, or better yet offer to contribute paying for the rights?  As for outside the US (which I thought you were) only Trinidadians and Guatemalans are interested in this game.
but keep an eye on http://www.soccertv.com just in case.

you should call TV6, you want them to carry the game right?  Get some people together and put pressure on them.

You can check   http://www.circuitocerrado.com/barestest.htm , and click on the link to the state.  But amazingly there doesn't seem to be anything in the N.Y area.

Look like a few places in Miami showing the match.  I might check Soccer 7 - they have some Caribbean fetes there so the fans may be more mixed.
