beachbum6264 Posted December 9, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 9, 2013 We sail on Jan. 6 - the date of the BCS National Championship Game (War Eagle!). So he NEEDS to know (emphasis: his :D) where on board the Noordam will they have a big screen TV that will show the game? Is there anything close to a sports bar? He's getting stressed! Thanks!

RuthC Posted December 9, 2013 #2 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Yes, there is a Sports Bar on the Noordam. The TV may not be considered big screen, but it can be seen if sitting at the bar in front of it. The game may or may not be televised on the ship. If it is televised, it will also be on your cabin TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted December 9, 2013 #3 Share Posted December 9, 2013 If the game is shown on ESPN, there is a better chance of the ship airing it than if it is televised on network tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OleSalt Posted December 9, 2013 #6 Share Posted December 9, 2013 If you push you may get them to put the game on a regular movie screen in one of the large lounges. We have had mixed experiences: Princess had the Florida/Ohio State game on a large screen. The room was decorated in school colors and popcorn was available. Royal Carib put the Super Bowl on one TV in the Sports Bar. After loud screaming they opened up a large screen in the ICE SKATING RINK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted December 9, 2013 #7 Share Posted December 9, 2013 If the game is shown, ESPN will be the channel. But there is no guarantee that it will be. There have been a few times -- like for Superbowls -- the games have been shown on a large screen in the Queen's Lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So excited I can't believe we actually made it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJfromCA Posted December 10, 2013 #10 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I'm hoping the Amsterdam will show the Rose Bowl, which is on ESPN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJfromCA Posted December 11, 2013 #14 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Thanks all for the reassurance that I won't miss it! See you there, fm6175. I'll be the one with a Stanford shirt that day. -- MJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BellBoys Posted December 11, 2013 #15 Share Posted December 11, 2013 We were on the Eurodam a two years ago and the Super Bowl was on during the cruise. The ship aired the game in the Show Lounge and provided a buffet. The event was well attended, I know the BCS championship game is not as popular but it is a huge event and they may do the same.
