Watching the Paris Summer Olympics: A Guide for the Mountain Time Zone
Living in the Mountain Time Zone can be tricky when it comes to television schedules. Broadcasts that air at "8 p.m. Eastern, Central and Pacific" might show up here at 6 p.m., 8:15 p.m., or 9 p.m. But when it comes to the Summer Olympics, timing is crucial. With many U.S. federations and the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee headquartered in Colorado Springs, and numerous athletes either from or training here, there's plenty to cheer for.
