I agree with Jessica. If you are watching the Super Bowl live and not charging admission, there is no problem at all. If you were watching a show on HBO or other subscription channel, you would probably need to get rights.

This would be a program where they would actually watch the Super Bowl on television here at the library. My first thought - broadcast rights. I know the NFL is very snarky about this type of thing. How would we go about getting permission for this? What would be involved - other than a huge amount of cash, which of course would kill this idea. Thanks!
