daisy7113 Posted February 19, 2008 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2008 DH and I sailed on Radiance last year and we bought the Bingo Dog. My question is this...we are sailing on Mariner in May, can we use the same Bingo Dog or do we need to buy another? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJSMaine Posted February 19, 2008 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2008 You can.. however, make sure he has is collar and tag, as THAT is what is important.... Annnnnd.. Bingo is going away, to be replaced by a Seal plushie... seems the seals fly through the air better and will allow the CD's to get them up into the balcony during events as well as allow for better aim so your neighbor isn;t as likely to steal it from your grasp as the CD looks YOU in the eye and throws it directly at you... :) Actually RCI is taking the bingo in house, where previously they had a contract of some sort with an outside firm for the machines and software... they will honor the Bingo with the tag that says BINGO on it... don;t loose the collar...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T&Tmom Posted February 19, 2008 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Ok - enlighten me. What is a Bingo Dog or Seal or whatever? If you win one/buy one, do you get something special? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVU Posted February 19, 2008 #4 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I just read another posting earlier this week that they no longer will let you use the Dog and they gave away all their Bingo Dogs on the Explorer. I was going to bring our dog on our next cruise but it sounds like he will stay home this time. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=715474&highlight=Bingo+Dog "On our 2/3/08 Explorer cruise they were giving away the BINGO Dogs at the bingo sessions. My DW ended up with 5 of them. There were no more left by the end of the cruise." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise409 Posted February 19, 2008 #5 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Just was on the LOS 2/2/08 cruise and they would not allow the bingo dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quampapetet Posted February 21, 2008 #6 Share Posted February 21, 2008 On our 2/10 Radiance cruise none of the BINGO announcements mentioned the BINGO Dog, only something else that you could do/get to get a free card. (I know on Valentine's they said anybody wearing red could get one free [when purchasing a set, of course], but I think there was something else on another day.) I remember thinking it strange that nobody talked about the Dog I'd heard about on here. Good thing I didn't go to BINGO - I'd have been disappointed about not being able to get the Dog (for want of the little doggy stuffed animal)!

Jungle Jane Posted February 21, 2008 #7 Share Posted February 21, 2008 On FOTS 2/3 no Bingo dogs allowed, they even tried to avoid even talking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggdf69a Posted May 14, 2008 #8 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I am looking for a dog with collar to add to the stuff I collect. The first time I saw them was last year on the adventure. We are going to Hawaii on Oct 3rd but they will be replaced with something else. Anybody here have one they want to part with....I will even pay you for it. Or I could pick up something for you on my trip. Pleaseeee....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
croosieloosie Posted May 14, 2008 #9 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I bought Bingo last week of November. They said nothing about him beiing discontinued. My next cruise was 6 weeks later, in January, and they wouldn't let me use him for anything. What a waste! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzpick Posted May 15, 2008 #10 Share Posted May 15, 2008 We were on the Mariner last week, and Bingo the Dog is no longer excepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikn4fn Posted May 15, 2008 #11 Share Posted May 15, 2008 We were on Liberty in April and it could NOT be used. They are replacing it with another promotion that will be out later this year. They did not provide any details about the new promotion. We'll just add Bingo to the DW's wall of Beanie Babies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare silentbob007 Posted May 15, 2008 #12 Share Posted May 15, 2008 No mention of the dog on Monarch last week, though the ads for Bingo did use the seal picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won one a couple cruises ago and never used him....he has a red felt beanie and scarf with a dog-bone shaped "Bingo" name tag. Is this what you're looking for? I could part with him if he's the one you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lszu Posted May 15, 2008 #14 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Well that sucks. They should at least allow us to trade our Bingo dogs in for Bingo seals considering we've already paid for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TahoeBob Posted May 15, 2008 #16 Share Posted May 15, 2008 The last time the Bingo dog question came up it caused my great pain! This is a true story and it is very sad so please help me in this most difficult time. My wife got a B.D. (Bingo dog) on out Monarch cruise in 2006, he was a very happy dog and got along very good with out two cats at home. When we were getting ready for our November 2007 cruise on the Vision my wife put B.D. in her carry on for the flight to LA. When we got to LAX as we were waiting for our shuttle the wife opened her carry on to check on B.D., He jumped out of the carry on and ran right in front of a cab and was flattened like a pancake. I am sorry to say Bingo Dog did not make it. Sad but true.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could part with him if he's the one you want. Wow that would be great. The dog is brown and white I think. I would really love to have him if you don't need him. If so just Email me for my info at Dfick@sbcglobal.net. Thanks alot. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skandls Posted May 18, 2008 #18 Share Posted May 18, 2008 On the Mariner last month - no more bingo dog. It has been replaced by a newly redesigned tshirt - and you get a 'star' on your seapass that shows you get the extra bingo cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
