tailspintom Posted January 19, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Whats the possibility of seeing the Daytona 500on Sunday 12/25/2017 on the big screen While I have never seen a NASCAR event on MUTS, one could always hope if you follow the sport. Do you have the date correct? I don’t recall the Datona 500 taking place on Christmas day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floridalover5623 Posted January 19, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I'd say not very good although you might see a little of it on your cabin TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOODIES Posted January 19, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Last 10 laps is all I need probably in the wheelhouse bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pablo222 Posted January 19, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Whats the possibility of seeing the Daytona 500on Sunday 12/25/2017 on the big screen It's held in February this year, so probably February next year. I was cruising with some folks who were interested in sprint cup, which was being shown on espn. (this was on a cruise from Ft. Lauderdale) Sprint Cup wasn't available on the ship because the ship had something like 'ESPN Carribbean', which was different than ESPN in the US. Your mileage may vary. Objects in the mirror may be closer than they appear. etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 19, 2017 #6 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I am thinking the OP put an extra 1 and incorrect 5 in there...it should be 2/26/17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tailspintom Posted January 19, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I am thinking the OP put an extra 1 and incorrect 5 in there...it should be 2/26/17. Yep, that's the race date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted January 19, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Nope...record it at home. It's VERY unlikely to be shown on a ship....now, soccer...that's a different story....24/7, or so it seems! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted January 19, 2017 #9 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I agree, most likely not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted January 19, 2017 #10 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Whats the possibility of seeing the Daytona 500on Sunday 2/26/2017 on the big screen Probably not. It is not mentioned as one of the sporting events in the Princess FAQ's. It depends if Princess has the license from Fox to pick up the signal and show it. If your ship has Club Fusion it might be shown there at the bar, if it is carried by ESPN International. However, Club Fusion is not normally open mid afternoon, and especially if the day is a port day. "We offer live satellite reception of MSNBC, CNBC, Fox News and BBC World. In some instances and based on sailing itineraries we offer Sky News and Sky Sports News in lieu of MSNBC and Fox News. Along with a movie channel featuring a wide selection of first-run movies, we also provide the latest sitcoms and dramas, an onboard version of the Discovery Channel, and a wide selection of special programming, including the Academy Awards®. Plus, for sports fans, we offer several major sporting events such as the Super Bowl® , BCS college bowl games, NBA Finals and the NCAA basketball tournament."

Rare MrSchwump Posted January 19, 2017 #11 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I've sailed on race day in the past and I've never seen it on MUTS or anywhere on the ship. As load as some of the movies are I can only imagine what a NASCAR race would sound like if the cranked it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mina Posted January 20, 2017 #12 Share Posted January 20, 2017 We are avid nascar fans and have never seen a race on the ship. As mentioned earlier, ESPN is not the same. They do report the outcomes of the race on several sports shows that we have seen on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

railman Posted January 21, 2017 #17 Share Posted January 21, 2017 The Daytona 500 is on Sunday February 26th and will be broadcast by FOX. I will be on the Crown Princess that day on a Sea Day so it would be nice but I am not counting on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
