jeanaa Posted July 27, 2005 #1 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Okay, I know this is a crazy question - but I'm a sports nut and I'm cruising the Sun Princess 10/29. Can anyone tell me if the World Series is televised (live??) at the sports bar? Should be the last two games of the Series if it goes the 7 games. Thanks!!

Nitemare Posted July 27, 2005 #2 Share Posted July 27, 2005 If they can get it on the satellite, they'll probably try to show the game, but it depends on where the ship is and local conditions. But there won't be any NYC teams in it anyway, so nothing to worry about! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToplessPony Posted July 27, 2005 #3 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I remember reading reviews from the Caribbean Princess that they showed the ACLS on the outdoor movie screen. I would think they would show it on the Sun's big screen too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northender Posted July 27, 2005 #4 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I think it is still our turn in Boston to win it all. But, to answer your question, I am sure they will have the games broadcast somewhere on the ship. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted July 27, 2005 #5 Share Posted July 27, 2005 No matter where we have been, the ship always seems to pick up the final four in basketball. So I would not be surprised at all to see they find a way to pick up the World Series! Best of Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunprincess Posted July 28, 2005 #6 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Yes, Princess does usually play the big series games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bplazo Posted July 28, 2005 #7 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Just tape it and watch it when you get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjh Posted July 28, 2005 #8 Share Posted July 28, 2005 We were cruising on superbowl Sunday and they showed it. So my guess would be yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudge's mom Posted July 28, 2005 #9 Share Posted July 28, 2005 We often travel during SuperBowl time - either the immediate playoffs or the SuperBowl itself. They try real hard to get the SuperBowl - because there are rabid fans on most cruises, but I don't think there will be enough whining for them to go to extraordinary means to get the World Series. We watched one football playoff game at a sports bar in San Juan prior to the ship leaving. Turns out - after all the promises - the game never got shown on the ship. People who found out they needed only go across the street to a bar to watch the game were unhappy. Any promises made about sporting events should not be counted on. Depends on hotel management - depends on cruiseline management - depends on satellite feed availability - most times if we ever got the game, it was mid-game or worse.

Flintstone Posted July 29, 2005 #10 Share Posted July 29, 2005 We were on the Sapphire for the last 3 games of the NBA finals. But it is all dependent on the Sattelite. On the final game, we kept loosing the signal throughout the 1st quarter. We met the greatest people while watching the games!! Have a great time!!

suzyluvs2cruise Posted July 29, 2005 #11 Share Posted July 29, 2005 We were on the Serenade of the Seas last October in Hawaii during the playoffs. The games were televised in the sports bar. This year we'll be on the Island Princess 10/23 cruise to Hawaii. I'm sure they will have the World Series games too. Go Red Sox!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
