  Beamed gamma-ray burst (GRB) sources produce a bow shock in their gaseous
environment. The emitted flux from this bow shock may dominate over the direct
emission from the jet for lines of sight which are outside the angular radius
of the jet emission, theta. The event rate for these lines of sight is
increased by a factor of 260*(theta/5_degrees)^{-2}. For typical GRB
parameters, we find that the bow shock emission from a jet with half-angle of
about 5 degrees is visible out to tens of Mpc in the radio and hundreds of Mpc
in the X-rays. If GRBs are linked to supernovae, studies of peculiar supernovae
in the local universe should reveal this non-thermal bow shock emission for
weeks to months following the explosion.
