On the Zuiderdam 6-13 cruise, the Saturday playoff games were shown in the Queen's lounge complete with snacks and beverage specials (from ESPN deportes). Sunday playoff games were not shown.

The Florida/Ohio State game was also shown in the Queen's lounge with food and beverages. It was a great atmosphere.

All games were also shown in staterooms.

WHO DAT??!!
We were on the Zuiderdam for New Year's. We were told that they purchase the feeds for certain games, but others they do not. The Rose Bowl was shown in the Sports Bar with snacks, drink specials, etc. The Sugar Bowl was not. So are you going to cancel your cruise? :-)

They made a bit of a celebration of the Rose Bowl in the Casino Bar of the Volendam. They served popcorn and were happy to sell you any drink you wanted. The football fans were not happy watching figure skating instead of the pregame hoopla.

Jazzlover, I read that HAL will televise the AFC games live on our cruise, but the NFC games we'll only have the ESPN highlights. Hope you'll share the radio feed.

Wee you in a few days and let the Music and the good times roll.
