MNice99 Posted August 2, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I would like to try to do a pub crawl on our allure cruise this up-coming February. I know it's not offered as an actual activity. I've read that NCL offers one so I'm wondering if any of you have cruised on both NCL and Royal and done the pub crawl on NCL. From what I've read they offer a pub crawl for whatever price, that includes a drink at 5 different bars with a pub game played at each one for prizes. You also get a playing card at each spot and the best Poker hand at the end wins a prize also. Now I know I can't just ask royal to offer this, so if I could get one off the ground everyone would be responsible for their own drinks. Before I post in our roll call page. I would like to get the opinions of the masses: what I would propose would be to meet at one bar at a pre arranged day/time We would have everyone kick in a mutually agreed on amount of cash (in lue of prizes) then at each bar we would a.) have a drink.(non alcoholic is perfectly acceptable) and b.) play a pub game cards, dice, etc... as well as get 1 playing card to collect at each spot try to get the best poker hand. so anyway...Here are my questions: would I even be allowed to try to set something like this up (on the CC website)? Do you think there would be any interest in doing this from a typical CC roll call group? Do you think Royal would object to group of people walking from bar to bar, playing cards, or shaking dice at each one? (technically gambling) Do you think I would have a snow balls chance in the Caribbean to get RCCL to kick in a few prizes to use for the games? finally if you've answered yes to the above questions, for all you allure veterans what 5 Bars would you pick to visit. (didn't I read somewhere that allure has self leveling pool tables somewhere? that would make a great spot if it's in one of the bars.) thanks MNice99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snit13 Posted August 2, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 2, 2016 We did a Pub Crawl when we sailed on the Allure and it was great fun. It was organized by a member of our roll call. We all wore funny hats and I seem to recall hit every bar that was open. Have also done Pub Crawl with Poker Draw on Celebrity Constellation and that was even more fun. The pub crawl on Allure was organized by kk99 (I believe) Kelcie from Texas. On our Feb. 2016 Celebrity Constellation instead of a slot pull we had a roulette tournament. It was better than slot pull. Grace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molsonschooner Posted August 2, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I don't think Allure has self leveling pool tables. Radiance class does though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snit13 Posted August 2, 2016 #6 Share Posted August 2, 2016 how does a roulette tournament work See directions and details on roll call from Celebrity Constellation of February 16, 2016. It was organized by Gopher from Minnesota. Got money back plus more. Ship's casino donated shirts for winners. We each got 3 chances for our $15 entrance fee.

jcc1025 Posted August 2, 2016 #7 Share Posted August 2, 2016 We have been on this class a couple of times and going back next year. A friend and I used to take pride in hitting every bar on the ships we were on. Well on this class you need to get ready, just finding all the bars is a challenge on these ships. With that said, these are by far our favorite ships. We had done the slop pull a few times but the pub crawl sounds like fun and may consider organizing one next year.

cruiserking Posted August 2, 2016 #8 Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) I've organized a Pub Crawl on the roll call for our upcoming Anthem Cruise in two weeks. So far about ten people have signed up. I like the added card game feature, we've done that on the cabin crawl and it's always a big hit. Here's what our Pub Crawl looks like right now, but, we may well tack on another bar or two once we get rolling. Anthem of the Seas - Pub Crawl Date: Wednesday August 24 Time: 1 pm Place: North Star Bar - Deck 15 Mid-Ship 2.) 270 Lounge Bar - Deck 6 Aft 3.) Vintages - Deck 5 Aft 4.) Bionic Bar - Deck 5 Mid-Ship 5.) Schooner Bar - Deck 5 Forward 6.) Michael's Pub - Deck 5 - Mid Ship 7.) Bolero's - Deck 4 Starboard Jonathan Edited August 2, 2016 by cruiserking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(like Grace and her funny hats?) Please report back after and let me know how it went. thanks Jayson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csnarpy Posted August 3, 2016 #11 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) We did a game of "golf" on Allure. 18 holes, various pars. Each shot was a sip. Each hole had a different drink. The par 3, 15th hole in Vintages was interesting, as was the "eagle" shot of fireball on the 9th! It was done on a sea day/night and we incorporated dinner and snacks throughout. Good times!

(like Grace and her funny hats?) Please report back after and let me know how it went. thanks Jayson Hi Jayson, I put together the running order and posted it on the roll call. Over the course of the last few months people join up. It's a good idea to re-post the information from time to time as people don't always read through the entire thread once they join the roll call. I will certainly report back, good luck with your Pub Crawl. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNice99 Posted August 13, 2016 Author #13 Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) I finally posted the info in our roll call, so if a pub crawl sounds fun and you are cruising on allure on feb 12th, join our roll call. Of even if it doesn't sound fun, if you are cruising on Feb 12th join our roll call anyway it will be fun to meet new people at the meet and mingle. anyway here is what I came up with for a hopefully fun pub crawl: begin at the schooner bar (deck 6) introductions and 1st card given proceed to Bar 2 Boleros bar (deck 5) 2nd card given and play 6-5-4 proceed to bar 3 Globe and Atlas Pub (deck 5) 3rd playing card given and play 1 hand of a resived texas hold em. (no betting between flop/T/R) proceed to bar 4 Rising Tide (deck 5) 4th card given but no other game here (may be hard to get everyone together here) Exit RT on deck 8, proceed to bar 5 Trellis bar (deck 8) 5th (and final) card given and play game of Left - Right - Center. The winner of the poker hand will collect their dwinnings we will be finished. I've never cruised allure so if anyone sees any issues with the pubs I've chosen please let me know. thanks Edited August 13, 2016 by MNice99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many pubs did you go to? (do you remember which ones?) Seem to recall we stareted highest deck with bar and worked our way down, even "God Forbid" stopping in the Pinnacle club for a look around. We did Poker Draw. Was great fun with large group in funny hats playing follow the leader from bar to bar,,,,lots of strange looks as we passed thru. Have a blast!

I don't think you could survive a full pub crawl(It is impossible to work out how many actual bars the is) on the Allure but you could give a good try :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun Lover Posted October 8, 2016 #17 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Hmm, no pool bar pit stop?:)Since Rising Tide might not be operational - you might need a substitute 'just in case'. Sounds like fun! My husband and I will be on this cruise. Our last cruise was on Oasis 5 years ago but this will be our first time on Allure. We'd be interested in the pub crawl.
