This is not true. In both the US and Canada I have paid to see soccer
from Europe. Tomorrow one bar in Edmonton (and only one) will be showing
Manchester United v Wimbledon. In places where there is a critical mass
of college hockey fans (enough to make it worth the bar's while) this
could be done for college hockey as well.
