Blackouts: Explain ESPN Watch to me...

[Martycane]

Several times I’ve tried to watch a Canes road game, and it was blacked out.
I’m staying in central Palm Beach County. Why would they black out a game for me?

It’s on TV for you somewhere, probably.

For games on ACC Network or RSN, Raycom pays ESPN for the right to show the game which they distribute to local stations or regional sports networks around the country. In return the game is blacked out on the ESPN app in the areas they are showing the game. I believe you might be able to steam this afternoon's game on the ACC website though.
It airs on the following stations in Florida:
Florida Fort Myers-Naples WXCW CW
Florida Gainesville WCJB ABC
Florida Jacksonville WJXT IND
Florida Miami-Fort Lauderdale WBFS My Network TV
Florida Orlando-Daytona Beach-Melbourne WRBW My Network TV
Florida Panama City WMBB-D2 This TV
Florida Tallahassee-Thomasville WTXL-D2 Bounce TV
Florida Tampa-St. Petersburg (Sarasota) WTOG CW
Florida West Palm Beach-Ft. Pierce WTVX CW

It's on one of the poor people channels in the lower numbers; 33 for me.

Once you turn it on ESPN will think you live somewhere else and it will work.
