Rare Turtles06 Posted January 31, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I thought I'd read here on CC some time ago that Fountains had been discontinued (presumably for health reasons). I'm on the Jewel now, and so I was surprised to see it performed last night. (Perhaps my memory was playing tricks on me!). Although this is our 8th NCL cruise, we'd never seen Fountains before. I have to admit, it was quite funny, but I sure hope they all used a lot of Listerine. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurabegorrah Posted January 31, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I've always found it to be part hysterical and part disgusting lol I know I would never be able to participate in all of the spit lol The last time I was it, most of the CD staff was new, and couldn't keep it together. They kept busting out laughing at each other, which took away from it a bit. The best version I saw they were 100% serious, making it seem even more over the top ridiculous.

cruzeluver Posted January 31, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Wow. Almost forgot about "Fountains". Saw it a couple of times. The best one was on the old Norwegian Majesty. The crew that participated played it very seriously which made it even more hilarious! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FranknBeans Posted January 31, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I was really disappointed that it wasn't on POA this month, we never get tired of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armwinder Posted January 31, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2017 We were on the Pearl last September and it was "performed" then. Very funny and a little gross. Every time I hear that music it reminds me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanDreaming2 Posted January 31, 2017 #10 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Just saw Fountains on the Dawn. Funny!:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastalbreezes Posted January 31, 2017 #11 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Glad to know they're bringing it back on occasion. One of the funniest acts I've ever seen (much funnier when you are there in person vs. watching a video). Tracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pathubia Posted January 31, 2017 #12 Share Posted January 31, 2017 They had Fountains on my last 2 cruises on the Dawn, May and Oct 2016. Very funny!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted January 31, 2017 #13 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I have never seen this on any of my NCL cruises! Think it is hilarious, in a gross kind of way! Hope to catch it on a future cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger001 Posted February 1, 2017 #14 Share Posted February 1, 2017 First time I saw Fountains I had walked into the theater by accident and it was about to be performed. I laughed until I had tears streaming. I hope it continues and doesn't let PC and thoughts of sanitation interfere with it. And...when done serious..super funny. Hey.....fun stuff....good times.....no serious...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellusionz Posted February 1, 2017 #15 Share Posted February 1, 2017 When do they do it? What would I look for on the schedule so I can be sure we get to see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMLady Posted February 1, 2017 #16 Share Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) When do they do it? What would I look for on the schedule so I can be sure we get to see it? It is usually the last act in the crew talent show. The crew talent show will be listed in the newsletter. It is usually held an evening or so before disembarkation. Personally I find the act disgusting. I fail to understand how spitting water is not a health hazard. I always enjoy the crew talent shows. But now I sit in the back of the theater, at the end of a row, so I can leave when that fountains act starts. Watching one was more than enough.

Heather1972 Posted February 1, 2017 #17 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I saw it on the Star last year. I had no idea that was done on other ships. It's funny and nasty at the same time. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mugtech Posted February 1, 2017 #22 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Personally I find the act disgusting. I fail to understand how spitting water is not a health hazard. From what I have seen, I do believe eating at the buffet is more of a health hazard:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMLady Posted February 1, 2017 #23 Share Posted February 1, 2017 The show is people spitting water on each other? It is not an entire show, but the cruise director & staff's contribution to the crew's talent show. -- if you can call spitting water as talent.

roger001 Posted February 2, 2017 #24 Share Posted February 2, 2017 The show is people spitting water on each other? Yep. And to us persons of no class or couth, DAMN funny! But....my usual tasteless opinion (as thought by others). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
