LATE NIGHT
Oct 08, 2015 02:04 PM #1

I was waiting for a late night thread to start up but no one has done it. Does anyone have any info on it as far as if it is being streamed or if its on tv?

@Statmachine @ralster responded to me in his post on the nut UK fan. I checked ESPN3 schedule and didn't see anything listed (they did show it last year). :angry:

I will still check ESPN3 tomorrow to see if it shows up. Otherwise, I would think that it would be on the streaming radio that is on KUAthletics site. If not, I am SOL.

Here's something they appear to be working on:

LOOKS LIKE WE DO GET TO SEE ON ESPN3 (clap)

Time Warner Cable SportsChannel will oversee the television production of Late Night, which will be seen live on the Jayhawk TV Network, including ESPN3. Additionally, KLWN Radio in Lawrence will provide coverage of the festivities.

rest of article below:

LAWRENCE, Kan. – The University of Kansas men's and women's basketball teams will ceremoniously tip off their 2015-16 seasons at the 31st annual Late Night in the Phog Friday, Oct. 9, in Allen Fieldhouse.

The 2015 Late Night in the Phog, presented by Hy-Vee, will run from 6:30 p.m., to approximately 9:30 p.m. In a twist from previous Late Nights, like men's basketball home games, KU students will be allowed to enter Allen Fieldhouse two hours prior to Late Night festivities, at approximately 4:30 p.m. As on game nights, KU students will enter through their customary separate entrance on the northeast side of Allen Fieldhouse. Doors will be open to the general public at 5 p.m.

Admission is free and Late Night will remain a ticketless, first-come, first-served event; no re-entry passes will be distributed. Children 12 and under will not be admitted without an accompanying adult. The Fieldhouse doors will be closed when the arena reaches capacity.

Kansas Athletics will use Wham City Lights, integrated into the official Kansas Athletics App, for "Late Night Lights" for added effect during the evening and Jayhawk fans will be able to participate in the activities should they bring a smart phone. By downloading the Kansas Athletics App - which is free and includes news, rosters, schedules, stats, periodic Jayhawk alerts and other helpful information - fans will assist in turning "Late Night Lights" into a hand-held light show.

With the construction of the DeBruce Center at the northeast corner of Allen Fieldhouse, workers have installed fencing that restricts access to some sidewalks adjacent to the Fieldhouse. The best way for students to access their entrance, therefore, is to approach that entrance from the west side of the parking garage.

With school in session Oct. 9, university parking lots will be restricted by permit until 5 p.m., with the exception of Lot 90 located across Naismith Drive from Allen Fieldhouse; that lot will be available for public parking at no charge starting at noon. Public parking will also be available in the parking garage just north of Allen Fieldhouse for Late Night in the Phog after 5 p.m.; cost will be $5 per vehicle.

As is the tradition at Late Night, fans are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items, which Kansas Athletics will donate to "Just Food" of Douglas County. Just Food will also be outside Allen Fieldhouse taking cash donations for those not able to bring a food item.

Time Warner Cable SportsChannel will oversee the television production of Late Night, which will be seen live on the Jayhawk TV Network, including ESPN3. Additionally, KLWN Radio in Lawrence will provide coverage of the festivities.

The event will feature music by the KU pep band, skits by both basketball teams, video highlights from KU's award-winning Rock Chalk Video department, coach and player introductions, scrimmages by the KU men's and women's teams, and much more.

@JayHawkFanToo it does truly suck! Come on down and watch it here, have to help me babysit😳

Oct 08, 2015 08:43 PM #9

I think a couple of years ago TimeWarner and Cox showed the pregame stuff, then blacked out the game itself.

Oct 08, 2015 08:44 PM #10

@JayHawkFanToo

That does suck.

I watched the NY Yankees get smoked by the Houston Astros last night and they mentioned the game being blacked out in NYC even though the game was a sell-out.

I've got the TWC sports channel now and it shows three hours of programming related to Late Night starting at 6:30 pm.

I have to thank AT&T for sufficiently upsetting my wife so we switched from AT&T a few months ago. They told her they'd be at our house between 4:00 and 8:00. My wife rushed and got back by 3:50, only to see a note on the door that they'd come early and we'd need to reschedule. The tech left a number, and when my wife said she wanted them to come that day, he said they were already at another job ... uh, not the right answer.

@HighEliteMajor

Gheez.... I "liked" your post, even though your wife suffered through a big time frustration.

I see DirecTV and AT&T are bundling their stuff together -

Big things are here from DIRECTV and AT&T. β†—

I suffer the outrageous expense from Cox in order to make sure I get as much KU as possible.

Oct 08, 2015 08:59 PM #14

@HighEliteMajor I suppose all of them provide crappy service now and then. I have Cox (my blood pressure just went up 30 pts when I typed that) and while I usually have pretty good coverage, when I have service issues - Oh my goodness - I'm pretty sure the whole company doesn't have the combined IQ of my shoe size.

In my area (Olathe) we have access to Comcast. Consolidated Communications (SureWest), Google and ATT (in the near future); TWC is not available to us. Of all the available providers, only Comcast carries the KC Sports Channel., and when I inquired about switching last year, I could not get a straight answer from them...there is a reason why the Comcast Customer Support Department is considered the worst of any business in the country.

@nuleafjhawk

Gosh... I had no idea your feet were that small!!!

Oct 08, 2015 09:12 PM #17

@Crimsonorblue22

I might take you up on the offer one of these days. :)

I don't mind the baby sitting at all.

Oct 08, 2015 11:00 PM #18

@justanotherfan ESPN3 cannot show anything on the video board and you have to suffer through their commercials, but Gurley is one of the broadcasters and interviews HCBS. It is better than nothing!

Oct 09, 2015 12:57 AM #19

@JayHawkFanToo

Gosh... then you are also welcome at my house! We've got two... 7 months and 2 yrs old.

@drgnslayr

My youngest grand daughter will be one year old in 3 weeks. The 15 year old grandson is out with his GF and my 13 year old granddaughter is spending the nigh with me since school is out tomorrow...she does not care much about baseball. :(

Oct 09, 2015 02:16 AM #21

Oct 09, 2015 02:19 AM #22

Oct 09, 2015 03:13 AM #23

@Crimsonorblue22

Yikes... typo.... I changed it now. 2 years old!

@JayHawkFanToo

Sounds like you have your hands full. Baseball has to grow on you.

Oct 09, 2015 03:15 AM #24

Oct 09, 2015 04:16 AM #25

@Crimsonorblue22

That's right. And now you see how bad of a bookkeeper I would be...

Oct 09, 2015 11:35 AM #26

We get to see him play tonight! Weather its red team or blue team if the teams are balanced (and they should be) Diallo will be on the winning team. He is just too much for anyone to keep up with!

@Statmachine can't wait!!

Anyone trying to watch on espn 3 app, it's under college studio not bb. Says 7:00

Oct 09, 2015 09:01 PM #30

@Crimsonorblue22 Last year I watched the entire show and it cut off before the 20 min scrimmage! Watching all of the other sports parade across the gym and the skits and then NOTHING! I wanted to throw my pc off of a bridge!

Oct 09, 2015 09:25 PM #31

@Statmachine kinda like I'm feeling watching the royals right now.

I'm going to try watching on espn3 in kc using a free private vpn. Fingers crossed.

Oct 10, 2015 01:12 AM #34

@ajvan work?

Oct 10, 2015 02:01 AM #35

IT WORKS. If you have an iPhone, grab a free vpn app. I'm using VPN In Touch (iPhone). Get it running, then grab the WatchESPN app & enter your provider data. Voila...just in time for the scrimmage.

Oct 10, 2015 02:04 AM #36

Why in the world is this a recruiting event

Oct 10, 2015 02:05 AM #37

@DanR I think it's cool.😎

Oct 10, 2015 02:08 AM #38
