If you are going to wear any pins, that would be the one to show off. It was well earned, I am sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting how they started making them ship specific a few years ago, but they never check. We usually only earn them for trivia and an occasional Baggo(Cornhole for you Southerners) game. I do like the art scavenger hunt game. Since we generally have most of the merchandise already we wind up giving some to teammates that need a few. I'm sure you know how that goes.

Why? And how often do you wear one of those? Looks a bit gaudy but you're in SoCal where dress codes are a tad different. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen a great many of them proudly worn on immaculate blue blazers while onboard our cruises, most prevalent for sure at the repeat passengers’ party but also at some of the specialty restaurants and GDR. Mine never have been worn but reside in the same dresser drawer as several small blue holders containing several useless cabin keycards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
