Comcast outage sparks outrage among Super Bowl fans

By Darla Guillen, Houston Chronicle Updated 8:06 pm, Sunday, February 5, 2017

Several Super Bowl parties along the East Coast were over before they could start.

Numerous angry Comcast users are reporting internet and TV outages, which prevented them from watching the Patriots' record comeback over the Falcons in one of the best Super Bowl finishes ever.

"Hell of a game, too bad I can't watch it cause @comcast dropped the ball. #EpicFail #comcastoutage #SuperBowl," one Twitter user posted.

"Thoughts right now: #comcastoutage and it's tied at the end of the 4th & wondering if there's a Russian conspiracy with the Pats #SuperBowl," another joked.

3. Wow.

I work in Telecom and all installation work was shut down by at least Thursday because of the SB. Some poor Comcast employee dropped the ball. Hope he's not fired.
