I would think in this situation though that any LiveTV issues wouldn't
come into play.  I obviously haven't got a clue how "big" the event
is, but wouldn't you set it to record, and then at your 'leasure' come
in and start watching the recording?

Over here, I don't "LiveTV" the SuperBowl.  I set a recording Job,
then when everyone has arrived, we start watching it, from the
beginning, even though it's ~20 minutes into it.
