Has anyone ever witnessed fellow cruisers...

Can't recall what ship I was on, but during one of the shows, there was a major set malfunction and one became stuck midway down with some dancers dangling. They tried to work on it, but the show had to be cancelled, but they eventually got it fixed for the last show I heard. Lots of folks sat around for about 30-40 minutes in hopes that it would resume, but for naught.

I think I was on that same ship! My clients thought it was so awful that the set got stuck.

After reading this thread I am starting to think I am drunk...

 

Then you are not allowed to be my client... not acceptable. Nor would you be able to leave the ship without me. I would request that they set the buzzer to sound every time you tried to disembark without a chaperone.

our first cruise when we were in St. Thomas before we could disembark the FBI came on board and took a man in handcuffs away an hour later, no passengers were allowed off the ship while this was all happening.

 

his wife was not so lucky, she left in a body bag, followed up on the internet when we came home, He is spending a very long time in a very small room.

There was the time this idiot who caused a stir on the Magic by hogging chairs. When confronted by fellow cruisers, his line of defense was, "Well, I looked for signs, couldn't find one, not on the little hut, not on the pool rule sign, so...if you can't beat em, join em."

 

Everybody eventually ignored him, which is what typically happens when dealing with a buffoon who likes to bring attention to themselves.

I was on a cruise where we had to skip a stop in the Bahamas due to a problem with the ship. We were walking near the lobby and heard a women screaming and screaming. Apparently, she and her fiancee were scheduled to be married while the ship was in the Bahamas. Her friends and family were already in the Bahamas waiting for them. She was just hysterical demanding a helicopter to take her to her wedding. Demanding to speak to the Captain. The employee kept telling her there was nothing that could be done. I thought she was going to jump over the counter and start beating the employee.

Now that's just not right! I can't stand chair hoggers! It's completely disrespectful and unnecessary. If everyone just used the chair... when they actually needed it... there would be plenty for everyone.

 

I am on the same page... sounds like a baffoon!

Now that's just awful. Definitely feel for her.

No way! Someone else noticed this group too? Ha! I need to do some digging and find out who it was... see if maybe they caught any video of it or something.

Obviously that was his point in all his postings, that's why I said go and play somewhere else. I started the thread here, those were my clients and he is making a joke obviously and distorting what happened, but that's another thread right.

What's his name is obviously bored, so I'm just letting him have his fun, what the heck, it's Friday night, that's why I started a thread to begin with.

I was on a cruise several years ago where a woman and man were sitting at the same bar as my husband and I. They were drinking and seemed to be hitting it off very well. There was some flirting, etc. After a while, another guy walked into the bar and starting acting beligerantly toward both of them and picked a fight with the guy. Turned out it was the woman's husband who was clearly upset that she was hangin' with this other guy. They came to blows, were escorted out of the bar, and both were removed from the ship the next day. It was the talk of that bar for several days afterward.

Wait. Hold on. My clients... are your clients? Impossible! They told me they were exclusive clients... that's why I went on this trip to begin with.
