halos Posted January 22, 2009 #101 Share Posted January 22, 2009 If these folk were going to be drunk and rowdy - a concern for some of ya'll - me thinks they'd be that way no matter how they dressed. That is an extremely valid point. LMAO.....great idea...go for it....you all will still be better dressed than some, and it would be fun to hear that song sung instead of "Hoppy birf-day two shoes"... :p TWO extremely valid points!!! The theme from GI will be no more disruptive than having the wait staff burst into song and certainly a great change of pace. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

annahailey Posted January 22, 2009 #105 Share Posted January 22, 2009 That sounds like a lot of fun!!! We are celebrating my fil and dd's birthdays on our cruise, but with just the standard cake and "happy birthday" song. We will be on the Glory next week too!

lovemyfamily Posted January 22, 2009 #108 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I think vacations are for laughter and creating memories. I would love to be on that cruise with you! What fun! No way would I be offended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GottaLuvCruising Posted January 22, 2009 #110 Share Posted January 22, 2009 me too, unfortunately :eek:Have you ever experienced Hashers???? Sadly, yes!

bindy1 Posted January 22, 2009 #111 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I wouldn't be too quick to make judgements about people "who don't care what others think." I make sure my kids are always well behaved and if not they are disciplined accordingly. They do not do cannonballs into the hottub, they do not run around on the elevators, and all of the other infractions posters have complained about. Both of my children are on the honor roll at school, say yes sir and no ma'am when spoken to. They are encouraged to do their own thing and not go along with the crowd. Just because I do not care what others think, doesn't mean my children are hoodlums. It is becuase of attitudes like yours that I do not care what others think. And for the record, I do not drink alcohol so no Wonder Woman here. And we do not have cars on blocks in the front yard. They are in the garage.

halos Posted January 22, 2009 #112 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Sadly, yes! Now that was a group of ill-behaved adults (setting terrible examples for their accompanying children, too!) your hashers had their kids with them???? wow! Ours didn't, thank God! (at least, I don't THINK they did. I didn't see any of them with kids, but then again, I tried not to pay much attention to them) I can't imagine that........:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisecastle Posted January 22, 2009 #113 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Dining Room probably not the place. While personally, I would think it would be really funny and I would probably try to join in as a guest star castaway, some folks are REALLY SENSITIVE about the DR. They don't even want kids in there, so I doubt they would want Gilligan, Ginger and The Professor.:eek: Try the buffet, or one of the bars or public rooms. I promise you, if you do it in the DR, especially with music, you will get crazy mad stares from some of the more serious types. Ignore the above comments. The Dining room is fine enjoy yourself. The dining rooms on Carnival are not in anyway formal and you will be fine. Remember Carnival no longer has a formal night so any night you choose would be fine.

Astep@atime Posted January 22, 2009 #114 Share Posted January 22, 2009 :o I wouldn't be offended......but some people object to flip-flops, shorts, t-shirts, hats etc.... And "Gilligans Island" wouldn't be "Gilligan's Island" without the right costumes, would it? It would ruin the ambiance of those who need "a certain atmosphere" for food to taste good. If you are concerned about "annoying others"....do it somewhere else. Otherwise you might be the recipient of unwanted comments and stares and ruin YOUR good time. Have fun! If I remember correctly...Yes I watched it all the time. None of them wore Flip flops and shorts. They were actually dressed nice. Mr Howell wore a dark blazer and the Mrs wore a fur. Ginger wore a formal and I think Mary Ann was dressed like Dorthy of the Wizard of Oz. The professor had on chinos I think. And the skipper and Gilligan were dressed like crew...lol Okay..I'm a dork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEOWSMURPHY Posted January 22, 2009 #117 Share Posted January 22, 2009 3 words........ GO FOR IT!!..Your celebration would be welcomed. It would be great to see everyone having fun...on our last cruise we sat next to a table of 10 and they had SOOOOOO much fun we had to talk a bit louder to hear each other...but they weren't obnoxious...just a group of family and friends enjoying themselves...Enjoy your cruise and like some of the OP's said..if I were on your cruise I'd seek out your table and join the festivities... HAVE FUN!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ Karaoke Girl Posted January 22, 2009 #119 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Realize also that those that post on cruise critic is a very small population of those onboard. However, do what you want to do and do not ask permission. If someone has a problem with it, tough. I think its a great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearose Posted January 23, 2009 #120 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Those people would not like my response to their comments and the only good time ruined would be THEIRS !!! To answer the OP's question most definitely not. Actually I would enjoy it and ask to take a group picture. The DR other than Elegant night is a perfectly fine place to have it so GO FOR IT ! As for the square,uptight "funsuckers" who would not like it, go about your dinner and mind your own business ! Ditto!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipty2 Posted January 23, 2009 #121 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I can't wait to see someone post here after the cruise with a "You won't believe what I saw in the dining room on my cruise" story. I love Gilligan and his friends so I would be entertained however putting myself in someone else's shoes who is not a fan maybe I would not like it so much. I agree with the other poster who said they would not want to be held hostage at another's campy party. There are many lounges and dining venues(ie Lido buffet) where this would be appropriate but the dining room really is not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidless Posted January 23, 2009 #122 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I have seen people do this kind of thing before in the MDR, and it was always a good laugh and seemed a lot of fun. Go for it!!! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metman146360 Posted January 23, 2009 #123 Share Posted January 23, 2009 As has already been posted, how long can the song last? And I'm one of those snooty folks who doesn't want my quiet space invaded. :mad: But if that happened at the table next to mine...you might be offended when I joined in the sing-a-long. :eek: It's GOING to be disruptive but the disruption doesn't have to last the entire meal time. And when 500 others join in the song, laughing and clapping who cares what the stogetty old koot at the next table thinks. I'll get over it....:D Have fun and the gentleman is lucky to have a family like you that wants to help him have a great time. :rolleyes: Wish I could be there.
