Which restaurants air non-WDCA-2- Nationals games

Can we post a list of restaurants in the MD-VA-DC blackout areas that air Nationals games other than those on WDCA-20? They'd have to have a DirectTV satellite. Defeat Peter "the Pig" Angelos's efforts to prevent us from seeing the games. Montgomery County MD is blacked out.

I have no problem with that, but I don't have the first idea about where you'd find such information.

I tried some Google searches previously but couldn't find anything.  I posted this question in the General Discussion thread, in the hope that somebody might know.  I was surprised that several restaurants that like sports crowds had nothing.  Hooters seemed to have multiple CBS feeds for March Madness, so maybe they have it.  The restaurants ought to band together for joint advertising.  They could get a lot of new business.

Places like Damon's might have it, but the Damon's in my town burned down, so I have no way of knowing for sure.

An excellent idea.  

Uh, er, I have nothing to contribute at the moment.

Maybe Kimnat can opine on some of the Fairfax joints.

Glory Day Grill in Gaitherburg has MASN. You just have to ask the manager who controls the remote. We watched 1/2 of a Nats game a little while ago.

I was kind of surprised that Rock Bottom Bethesda wasn't on the list.  I'd love to go watch games there since I live within crawling distance.
