Welcome to the future of sports broadcasting.

On Monday night, NHL and NBA fans in Detroit, Minnesota, Milwaukee, Dallas, and other places covered by Bally Sports (which operates regional sports networks spun off in the big Fox / Disney deal), who subscribe just to watch their local teams got mostly error messages instead of games.

In a statement to the Detroit Free Press, Bally Sports SVP/GM Greg Hammaren blamed the outage on Okta and problems with its Auth0 platform.

Of course, it’s not Okta that still blacked out local access to the games via other platforms despite the outage.
