Kangaroo TV??? has reached agreements with the National Football League and DIRECTV to conduct a season-long test in which DIRECTV's exclusive NFL SUNDAY TICKET??? programming will be delivered to fans at select NFL stadiums using Kangaroo TV's specialized handheld device. The service will be provided under the brand name "NFL SUNDAY TICKET??? In-Stadium By DIRECTV".
The Miami Dolphins and Washington Redskins will participate in the trial, offering the service to fans on a season-long or per-game basis. The service debuted at the Dolphins home game on Sunday, Sept. 24, and will premier in Washington on Sunday Oct. 1. The season trial follows a successful one-game test of the technology at a game last season.
Kangaroo TV and DIRECTV have signed an agreement that grants Kangaroo TV the rights to rebroadcast NFL SUNDAY TICKET content at select stadiums using the same Kangaroo TV technology already popular with fans in motorsports. The agreement also provides DIRECTV the primary sponsorship of the new service.
"With NFL SUNDAY TICKET In-Stadium, DIRECTV and Kangaroo TV have created the best seat in the NFL," said DIRECTV Entertainment President David Hill. "NFL SUNDAY TICKET has transformed the NFL viewing experience at home and we have no doubt it will do the same for fans in the stadium and at tailgate parties in the parking lot."
