alainamarie Posted July 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Sorry if this has been discussed recently, but I'm a Saints season ticket holder and will be missing two games. Any idea where I can watch them on this ship?! Thanks & WHO DAT!?! -Alaina from New Orleans Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted July 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Before or after the Transatlantic? In Europe, probably not going to be shown on the ship at all. Once the ship reaches the Caribbean, maybe the casino. Maybe your stateroom. What network will they be on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orator Posted July 2, 2014 #3 Share Posted July 2, 2014 You will be able to see them on your cabin TV or a bar or casino TV if they are on the Satellite. There is a same probability that they will be on unless it's the game of the week. Even then it depends on the satellite feed. They do subscribe to the Super Bowl feed, but you won't need to worry about that :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even then it depends on the satellite My experience has been you will be able to see the CBS and/or Fox games of the week and NBC/Sunday night and ESPN MNF.

You will find me in my Saints jersey! -Alaina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oville Posted July 2, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) It's my biggest sacrifice to sail for my 30th birthday!! #whodat -Alaina We are huge fans and cheer for a team that is often the CBS game of the week. To be honest, I find it a bit depressing to be sailing in the Caribbean and glued to a TV screen for 3 hours in the middle of the afternoon. My hubby on the other hand can't understand my position.;):D Yes, you are correct, we are on the Constellation in December, but our b2b starts on the 8th and ends on the 22nd. I think your cruise starts on the 13th. Edited July 2, 2014 by Oville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do Agee that it's silly to give up hours of relaxation time for a game, but I love football & I love my Saints! Look forward to meeting you! -Alaina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted July 2, 2014 #11 Share Posted July 2, 2014 You will have to wait and find out after you board the ship. There is no guaranty your particular game is going to be shown. This would just be an FYI.....if missing the game is going to ruin your cruise? Just dvd it and don't listen to anything on the ship so you can watch it when you get home.

How odd your experience has been so different. Really no difference in what we're saying. He will see the Saints if they are a featured game and if they can get the satellite pick up on ship. Just. Ship can select games unless thet subscribe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, missing the game will not dampen my cruise spirit! It will be nice to see part of the game and know who won. I am DVR'ing both games while I am away. I'm a season ticket holder and love my Saints. Nothing wrong with polling the audience to see what my chances are. If it works out, great, if not I will catch up when I get home! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alainamarie Posted July 2, 2014 Author #15 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Ships usually carry ESPN so you'll see the score. Thank you! I'm not as worried now after hearing everyone's feedback. I have a feeling it will be on one of the main channels. I was on a Carnival cruise two Decembers ago and was able to view in the casino bar, but the smoke bothered me. The sacrifices we make to watch our teams!! :cool: If I remember correctly, the game was also on in our stateroom. This is my first time on Celebrity, so I'm clueless when it comes to channels, bars with tvs, etc. Thanks again y'all! -Alaina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisead Posted July 2, 2014 #16 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Here's the deal. Celebrity does not carry network TV channels, unlike Carnival. If a game is on ESPN Deportes, then you'll see it. If your game is on Thursday night, Sunday night or Monday night, it will probably be shown. They do not show every game, only those that I mention above. They do not have NFL Sunday Ticket. The area in the casino bar is VERY small and can be crowded. In cabin TV is very bad on Celebrity. You get a Spanish and English version of TNT (but it's not the TNT we have here in the states), Cartoon Network, Fox News, CNN International, and most of the time you're stuck with the Spanish version of ESPN.

Hi Tracie:)......except for the Playoffs and Superbowl:D. I have cruised during those weekends and for the Superbowl....they show them, no matter who is televising them at home;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it is awesome:D I saiiled when The Packers beat the Steelers and the big screen...well it was A BIG SCREEN in the main theater...it took up the entire stage:).......They served all kinds of food and had decorations with the colors of both teams. They had more food in the casino and they had 2 big boards for the squares game. No, I didn't win:rolleyes:...but I do remember one of my tablemates won the 4th Quarter......it was a BIG WIN...the squares were 10.00 and 20.00 a piece.....if memory serves, she won something like 700 bucks! It was really fun sailing on Superbowl Sunday!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but your info is incorrect. I sail often on Celebrity and have watched many CBS and Fox games during the NFL season. Typically on a Sunday you will see each network's chosen Sunday game. We are huge Pats fans and have often seen them on the CBS/Fox feeds while cruising. As an aside, the Sunday's game of the week are covered by Phil Sims/Jim Nance and Troy Aikman/Joe Buck for CBS and Fox, respectively.

phoenix_dream Posted July 3, 2014 #22 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Never hurts to make a request to the media officer. Sometimes they have options on their satellite feed and will stream the game most requested. If it's not on their feed then there is nothing they can do.

JanineM Posted July 6, 2014 #23 Share Posted July 6, 2014 We have seen some games on the casino bar tvs, and occasionally - depending on satellite signal - games in cabins. The casino bar tv will be turned to whatever game is most popular. If you're sailing with a bunch of fans for another team don't expect the bartender to turn on the Saints games. Most popular teams tend to be the Patriots, Jets, Giants and Packers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're Falcons ST holders and our games are never popular enough to be shown ... I always know the score before I see the game, but still watch it when we get home. Actually, I DVR every game whether we're there it not. You never know what you'll miss or want to see in replay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
