FredT Posted January 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Well, While we are not fanatical, both my wife and I enjoy a good football game... AND "our" team stands a good chance of making the Superbowl this year... So I have to ask. "Any chance of this game being played anywhere on the Royal Clipper on February 5"? (Port of call is "The best of the Grenadines") If not, a small price to pay for the trip... but if so it would certainly be the icing on the cake! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayjayp Posted January 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I've been on NCL, Royal Caribbean, and Celebrity during playoffs and super bowl and always the game was shown on the ship, I think one time it was even on the room TV Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghraustin1 Posted January 22, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Hate to burst your bubble, but Best of the Grenadines will probably be a beach with perhaps a beach bar,,,, if big beach and a big beach bar you might get some super bowl viewing, but I would not assume the ship will show the super bowl, based on many previous Star Clipper sails. They have TVs in the cabins but they normally show ship videos, movies and perhaps an odd channel or two based on location, but the ships are not geared towards viewing big US sporting events. Hope you get a good Pain Killer or 2 at the beach bar though and enjoy that sail!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinmike Posted January 23, 2017 #6 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I wouldn't count on seeing the game - it might happen but I sure wouldn't bet on it. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredT Posted February 14, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Post script... Yes we did see the Superbowl. Star Clippers went WAY out of their way to get the channel, and about 30 of us gathered in the library to watch the game while under full sail in the Grenadines... A magical night.

smokinmike Posted February 14, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Glad they made it happen for you! It's been a couple of years since we've been to the Caribbean aboard one of the Clippers - we need to remedy that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
