ClaireAndMike Posted February 9, 2013 #30 Share Posted February 9, 2013 So I was kind on a mission to get my grubby mitts on one of these glasses. We were on the Epic last month and I asked a crew member which bar I could get a rebellious fish in since I never saw it on any menu. He called someone on his portable ship phone who relayed that any bar could make it. The guy kept calling a "bellious" fish, haha. Anyway, I ordered one at Shaker's and asked the bartender about the fishbowl glass. He told me he hadn't seen one in months. I was bummed out. Imagine my surprise when like the very next day, the rebellious fish was the "drink of the day" in the Freestyle Daily and was "served in a souvenir glass." I hauled my butt down to the Atrium cafe and inquired as to what the souvenir glass looked like and out came the infamous fishbowl glass! Imagine my excitement. I immediately ordered two.

Well I'm really getting excited to find out if somehow they have been replenished and will be available when we sail next month. They weren't available on any ships in October, but then folks got them on the Jewel in November, and now the Epic in January, so I am feeling a bit more optimistic now! :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaldosPepper Posted March 24, 2013 Author #32 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I'm happy to report that the Rebellious Fish glasses were available on the Jewel last week. I'm sipping out of one as I write this. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLgirlCruises Posted March 24, 2013 #33 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Another thing I've been looking forward to on the Gem in May. :) My single glass is lonely in my cabinet. Fingers crossed we both find them on an upcoming cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesea777 Posted March 24, 2013 #34 Share Posted March 24, 2013 We got 2 of those bowl glasses 2 weeks ago on Dawn - yes they have changed - they are now hard plastic and have the wording "Norwegians Drink From The Bowl" all around the bowl glass, and it also has the NCL logo saying "Cruise Like A Norwegian".

Really? The ones I got last week on the Jewel are glass, and say "Ah, so this is what they mean by sea legs." They have the rebellious fish image on them also, but no NCL logo. Perhaps the Jewel received a shipment of glasses from the original purveyor, but the Dawn has already received the replacements. Very interesting. I'm glad I was able to get the glass ones, as I'm not crazy about plastic glasses, but I can can certainly appreciate that there is a lot less risk of breakage with the plastic version, not to mention cost-efficiency.

TravelDiva88 Posted March 24, 2013 #38 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I was told by several bartenders on the Epic that they were looking to restyle them as the thin side walls were posing a safety hazard to guests. AKA too many drunks were squeezing them and getting cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllBoys2002 Posted March 27, 2013 #39 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I hope they have not gone plastic, I dislike the plastic glasses.. I have 3 half filled with Bermuda pink sand and a tealight in the center..I love to look at them... "I could drink this faster if I had gills..." and "Can you swim a straight line..." Wanted to add to them but not if they're plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
