Jimmy Geegitz Posted September 18, 2013 #3 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Nice. I have actually never watched a hairy chest contest in all my cruises. Nice to see you don't actually have to have all that much hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickyplumb Posted September 18, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Nice. I have actually never watched a hairy chest contest in all my cruises. Nice to see you don't actually have to have all that much hair. They should call it a dance contest, on our last cruise I lost to some guy with like 5 hairs on his chest because he could dance. I look like a rug but didn't win, a hairy chest has nothing to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right, it goes to the person with the most personality, and not necessarily the hairiest chest. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emandjennsmom Posted September 18, 2013 #11 Share Posted September 18, 2013 My husband won, too. He put on quite the performance. LOL I kept waiting for the video to make it on Youtube, but it never did. I'm glad we bought the cruise video. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickyplumb Posted September 18, 2013 #14 Share Posted September 18, 2013 That's right, it goes to the person with the most personality, and not necessarily the hairiest chest. :) So I don't have a personality because I can't dance, what's that supposed to mean. If you call something a hairy chest contest you should need a hairy chest to win, otherwise call it a "personality contest". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dettlja Posted September 18, 2013 #16 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'm trying to talk my husband into manscaping his rug into the shape of the funnel for our upcoming cruise. He's not convinced yet. Lol! Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie S. Posted September 19, 2013 #17 Share Posted September 19, 2013 So I don't have a personality because I can't dance, what's that supposed to mean. If you call something a hairy chest contest you should need a hairy chest to win, otherwise call it a "personality contest". If you can't dance, you're not going to win since that is a requirement. You also need to be outgoing and obviously be having fun. You don't necessarily have to have the most hair. The guy we chose was the oldest of the group, but he was the most entertaining. And, he did have a hairy chest, all gray hairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm must have missed the dancing is required part of the contest rules, that was never explained to anyone. as for out going I play in a band and do staand up comedy, but i have back problems so I really can't dance, but I guess dancing means you have personality, what a crock.

LightspeedVegas Posted September 19, 2013 #21 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Congrats! I rarely do anything that is scheduled on the ship but I always arrive early for the Hairy Chest Contest and find my place on the upper deck with a fabulous view. This is one of the better events on the ships. We dance, cheer, laugh, and have a great time. I didn't get to watch the video but I hope you received a genuine pure gold plastic ship on a stick. Cheers, Tracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they do them differently on different ships, but of the four contests I have watched on Spirit and Legend, each contestant was told to dance over to the judges. A number of the contestants weren't great dancers, but they made an effort and that's where their personality came through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess. I thought that everyone had a personality. But it seems like dancing poorly but with great enthusiasm and total lack of embarrassment is the winning combination. I know a woman whose son works for one of those gold buying places and he stands out by the road and plays air guitar with great enthusiasm and no apparent embarrassment while wearing metallic gold pants with the legs rolled up, no shirt (when it is really hot) and a rag around his head. It would work for the hairy chest gig. Perhaps inspiration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
