2014 Packer Game Blackouts in the Twin Cities Metro / Western Wisconsin Regions

If you are a Packers fan living in the Twin Cities metro / western Wisconsin regions like I am, I have some bad news for you this year. For the past several years, we have enjoyed an average of only 5 games or so blacked out per year. Unfortunately this year will be different, with up to 10 games being withheld from us.

Technically these games are not being “blacked out” as this is not due to the Packers being able to sell out their home games, but instead are caused by conflicts in schedule with the Minnesota Vikings and TV contract rules. That said, this region is an unofficial secondary market for the Packers and the networks do show all the Packer games on TV they are allowed. To see the rules on which games are shown, check out the506.com/nflmaps.
