    Any Jai Alai (Pelota) fans on DP? The only fronton that livestreams jai alai/pelota matches that I am aware of is Magic City Casino & Jai Alai in Miami FL. They are not playing matches in July and August and I was looking around trying to find other frontons around the world that may livestream games. I am primarily interested in Cesta Punta style matches, but would appreciate any links to livestreams of any format. Could not find anything by googling.

    Thanks for looking. I am familiar with this website as they are showing some of the Magic City Jai Alai offerings that I mentioned above.

    No problem.I read somewhere that the game is basically going extinct.There's no money in it.

    I am not sure what happened. At one point, there were 12-14 frontons around the U.S., and now the two left are both in Miami and only part-time efforts. I know that game-fixing scandals took their toll many years ago, but not sure why they never recovered. My friend and I used to go to Newport Jai Alai (in Rhode Island) once a week or more back in the 1980'/1990's. Still enjoy the game when I get to see it live-streamed.
