It’s happening. It’s really happening.
The coronavirus outbreak has done a number on live sports and television programming schedules, but some good news has come to light in the wake of the global pandemic.
ESPN 8: The Ocho is returning to ESPN2 on Sunday, March 22.
If you’re not familiar with The Ocho, it’s a reference to a fake television network in the 2004 comedy Dodgeball, starring Vince Vaughan and Ben Stiller. In 2017, ESPN began adapting the concept every year on August 8 (8/8, get it?) for one day full of obscure sports and “good, clean family fun” that’ll leave you saying: “that’s rad.”
When you needed it most…ESPN8: The Ocho returns!
