'Rolling Rally' Honoring 2007 World Champion Red Sox to Keep Rolling Exclusively On Comcast On Demand
Comcast To Offer More Than Three Hours of NESN's Boston Red Sox Parade Coverage ON DEMAND
BOSTON, Oct. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Fans who couldn't make it into Boston for today's "Rolling Rally" honoring the 2007 World Champion Boston Red Sox or who were there but want to see it again (and again) at home will be able to watch both highlights and wall-to-wall coverage of the celebration on Comcast ON DEMAND through the month of November, Comcast announced today.
From Jonathan Papelbon's "River Dance" moves to players' remarks from their Duck Boats to the Dropkick Murphys' performance, fans across New England will be able to catch it all ON DEMAND on Comcast whenever they want, with the ability to pause, fast-forward and rewind. The full parade will be available tonight, with additional highlight clips available by tomorrow.
"We are thrilled to bring the celebration home for so many loyal Red Sox fans who couldn't make it into Boston today," said Paul D'Arcangelo, Vice President of Comcast's Metro Boston Region, who added that Comcast also was a sponsor of Tuesday's celebration. "Our customers tell us they love the convenience and value they get from ON DEMAND, and as a lifelong Sox fan myself, I know this is going to get a pretty good workout in my house!"
Like the vast majority of the 9,300 programs Comcast makes available ON DEMAND every month, this special Red Sox coverage will be available at no additional cost to all Comcast Digital Cable customers.
The Red Sox victory parade coverage can be found easily from the ON DEMAND menu just by selecting "Get Local," then "NESN" and then "Sox Parade Coverage" on Comcast Digital Cable.
For more information about Comcast Digital Cable with ON DEMAND, customers can call 1-800-COMCAST or visit http://www.comcast.com/.
