vtgirl Posted November 11, 2010 #1 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I will be boarding the Carnival Dream on Saturday, Nov 20th. I notice that the website says that they show sporting events on the big screen by the pool. Any chance they would show college football? Like Virginia Tech v Miami which is that day? Thanks for indulging me on this :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted November 11, 2010 #2 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Probably not on Carnival. They showed the big games on Princess big screen. I did get to see the New Orleans Saints play Washington on the big screen on Triumph, but no college games. Its up to the CD. It also has to be shown on a station that Carnival receives. They dont get that many stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcs819 Posted November 11, 2010 #3 Share Posted November 11, 2010 don't hold your breath. Your best bet is to go to the sports bar, and even that is iffy depending on the channel and the signal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtgirl Posted November 11, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I figured as much, but thought how great it would be to watch my Hokies by the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtgirl Posted November 11, 2010 Author #6 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Questions like how to contact the cruise director to make sure you can watch college sports by the pool? I'm in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tree Hugger Posted November 11, 2010 #7 Share Posted November 11, 2010 We saw the Texas/Texas Tech game on the Conquest this past September, they re-arranged the movie schedule to accommodate it, so I wouldn't completely rule out the possibility of VaTech/Miami if enough people request a viewing.

TheStig Posted November 11, 2010 #8 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I was on the Dream last December and they did indeed put a few Football games up on the big screen. One was a popular college football rivalry and at least one NFL game. There were people grumbling that they were on the cruise to get away from all that, but they were also the most watched events shown on the jumbo screen all week. Just track down the cruise director and ask. I will be on the Dream again in 4 weeks and I am hoping to see a game or two on the big screen.
