I'm trying to setup an option to have a group of people watch a season opening sporting event at a location that does not have any cable, satellite or antennae available. Is there a temporary way to recieve a signal with high enough quality to really enjoy the picture on a digital projector at a large screen size?

A lot depends on where you are located with respect to the transmitter. If you are close enough, you may be able to get adequate reception with an indoor antenna (Zenith Silver Sensor). Since you are interested in a single channel for this event, you may find a location to optimize reception on that channel. For a temporary outdoor installation you can mount a telescoping mast alongside your house. Secure the pole with a clamp at the roof line (as high as you can). Hopefully you can get reception with the antenna about 6'-8' above the clamp so you don't need guy wires (and hope for a windless day). To get an idea of what kind of antenna you need go to http://antennaweb.org and enter the location's address.

It is better to install an antenna..after your use you can remove it and use or any other purpose.
The video quality will depend on the type of antenna installed and the distance of broadcasting station from the place of antenna installation.

As your question suggests, you need to temporarily install an antenna.
You will also need a suitable mast and associated rigging.
It may be possible to hire one or contract someone to erect it.
A trawl through Yellow Pages or Google might help.
