Magic City’s Scott Savin now reaches even more Jai-Alai viewers through Twitch, an interactive livestreaming service for content spanning gaming, entertainment, sports, music, and more. Fans can watch and listen to pelota game player, El Barba (Dennis Dalton), along with former Jai-Alai announcer, Paulie, and chat with them while watching live H2H sports betting games at Magic City. Paulie is the originator of the Jai-Alai announcing phrase “the pad is bad.” Paulie is also known for saying “macho picchu” when shots hit OB into the upper screen.
I signed up for Twitch yesterday morning to join the chat for Monday’s H2H games to find out more. The FREE sign-up was easy and after going to https://www.twitch.tv/watchjaialai.
The duo is featured in a small screen on the bottom left of the H2H live-match screen where fans can watch the matches, watch them and hear them, while still hearing Stu and Andrew announcing at a lower volume in the background. Viewers who have signed-up can even join the chat and ask El Barba and Paulie questions and get answers. This is your opportunity to ask this Twitch Jai-Alai announcing duo your Jai-Alai questions and read what the other chatters are saying. Yesterday was National Pi Day and El Barba even gave his top 10 types of pie in a countdown from 10 to 1 during the broadcast. The pair is also evaluating the best doubles match plays in an interesting way and you will have to check-in to find out more about that! Turns out El Barba even knows a lot about Bitcoin.
All in all I found it interesting and today El Barba will be announcing the teams for the 2nd World Super Court qualifier at Magic City on April 13th at 3-pm EST.
