Sunday’s Game

According to the lasts updates, the NFL is planning to block live streams of the game inside the stadium during the Super Bowl. While stadiums have boosted cellular and Wi-Fi infrastructure to keep fans connected during games, there's always the possibility that there won't be enough bandwidth for everyone.

CNN explains that the plan is to prioritize upload speeds over download because fans generally spend a lot of time posting photos and statuses to social media.

The NFL is also providing a Super Bowl app to attendees with an event guide and "exclusive content," but it won't include streaming video or replays, again, to minimize bandwidth use. Luckily, the vast majority of fans will actually want to “watch the game on the field, watch the replays on the jumbo board, and participate in the event more than they want to be checking their phone."
