MISSSNOOPYGIRL Posted January 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Instead of doing away with tried and true favorites (like live steel drum music, nightly sushi tasting, fish and chips on some ships) why not do away with this cheesy tradition? I mean, Carnival is all about change lately so why can't they figure out a new poolside contest already? I admit it can be kind of funny (especially when my mom was a judge) but my point is- I don't think this would bother ANYONE if they replaced it!

rhinomike Posted January 10, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2014 It's better than trivia and bingo. Not much else to do anymore on Carnival ships during the day.... Unless you like laying by the pool all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfadj Posted January 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2014 It really doesnt cost them anything to do this so they figure why change. and yes some days at sea there really isnt much to do. Some new activities or games would be very welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overeasy Posted January 10, 2014 #6 Share Posted January 10, 2014 We enjoy it. Dear Wife judged it last cruise, had a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare richstowe Posted January 10, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 10, 2014 If you got rid of it there would be a missing gap in the trip DVDs they want to sell you. :D Seriously why would you like to eliminate an activity many enjoy including your own mom ? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c&d Posted January 10, 2014 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I always intentionally miss the hairy chest contest. If folks need activities during the day Carnival should update activites. Oh yeah I forgot Carnival will charge $$$ for those activies, that is why Carnival started bingo around the pool area raises the revenue and build a bear for kids. I wish they would bring back the steel drum bands, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KPfromCT Posted January 10, 2014 #13 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I could care less either way...However, I will say that it is always nice to watch people make fools out of themselves:D:D:D We personally LOVE the trivia and Bingo, and the bean bag toss, etc. Plenty of other stuff to do, but since we are usually out at the Lido pool, we do watch.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigereye Posted January 10, 2014 #14 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I never attend the hairy chest crap. If they want my drink money, put steel drums back on Lido and forget the hairy chest junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaLuvCruising Posted January 10, 2014 #15 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I went to it my first couple cruises (20 years ago). Now I just do something else and wonder why it exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A live band would. :rolleyes: LuLu ~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Circus Posted January 10, 2014 #20 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I never avoid trying to see this, but usually only see it because we have prime seating location by the pool and don't want to move. :) I think the competetition is stale and needs an update. Celebrity mixed this up by having a belly flop contest which was fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
