Fezmid Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Going to watch the game while on a Carnival cruise ship on the Atlantic ocean, on the way to the Bahamas. Anyone ever watch a Superbowl on a cruise ship? I'm hoping it'll be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordio Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Taking my annual trip to Vegas for the Super Bowl. Did not go last year, first time I missed it in six years. Really missed it. Going with 4 of my friends. My one friend got a 3 bedroom suite at the Flamingo. Never stayed there so not sure how nice it is there but hey the price was right, which is to say it was free so I can't complain. Cashed in my frequent flyer miles so my ticket was also free so this trip has cost me nothing that is to say until I hit the crap/blackjack tables Friday afternoon. For the Super Bowl we got tickets to the Flamingos super bowl party. Not sure what that is all about. It is on one of their top floors I believe & my friend that got the tickets said it is open bar & they have a ton of food so I guess we are going to do that. All day Saturday we will hang out at the sports book in the Mirage & when I say all day I mean all day. We will get there probably 8:30 am & not leave until the Gonzaga/San Diego game is done which will probably be around 10:30 pm or so. I will probably bet about $1,500 worth of college basketball games that Saturday. Should be a nice little weekend. Looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Anyone ever watch a Superbowl on a cruise ship? I'm hoping it'll be fun. Feb 2007, Bears vs Colts. We were outside Australia, so for us it was live at 10am on Monday. They showed it in the main theater on a big screen, along with TVs in your cabin. Outside the theater they had pizza, wings, etc. It was an ESPN International feed though, so we didn't get to see the commercials like the US gets.

So was it a cool experience (aside from being outside of Australia, which instantly makes everything cool )? We'll be on the east coast, sailing down from New York City on Sunday, so should get the US feed I would assume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Just making a ton of food and drinking some beer. Might invite a few friends, but probably not, since it's a school night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Same answer I give every year: staying home and watching the game without company. I have a good friend who has a big party every year, and dozens of people show up and bring food and they have pools and squares and if you're one of those people who doesn't care about football as a game, it's a great time. But about five or six years ago, I couldn't take it any more. I like the game. I want to watch every play without someone trying to talk to me about a movie they saw last week or showing me pictures of their kid. And worst of all, the only time everyone shuts the hell up is when the commercials are on. We stay home. Eat what we want. Pause and rewind when we want. And enjoy the game without having to bother with, y'know, other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Another chilling tale of suburban ennui. JW Same here; will put the girls to bed at 7:00, go down and finish my wings and start watching the game around 7:30. After fast forwarding through the network promos and halftime idiocy I should catch up to real time in the 3Q. I made the mistake of watching the game at my sister's house last year. Never again.

IDBillzFan Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Another chilling tale of suburban ennui. JW Now that's just damn funny. In all seriousness, people don't realize the difference between these two teams. If the Ravens win, you can count on downtown Baltimore turning crazy. Probably a car or two flipped over. Maybe a police car on fire. But if the 49'ers win, everyone in San Francisco will turn crazy by wearing their leather chaps and pouring their 2005 Bodega Catena Zapata Malbec without giving it enough time to breathe and then running to Nordstroms to try on clothes but not put them back on the hanger. Okay, in fairness the leather chaps are not that crazy for SFO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaattMaann Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 we always have a little shin dig at our place....just making lots of apps, no "main meal" as we have done in the past (home made meatball sammies one year, pulled pork one year, and last year was about 20 home made pizzas) the girls go in one room and chit chat, and the men swill beer and watch the game as our classy women dote on us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 probably watch it along with the puppy bowl like always. Sundays I try to be in the house by 7. Heck, I do not even know if the Super Bowl is this weekend or next... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilly Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Well, I'll probably still be be sitting here on capitol hill. Honestly, it's been a long, long journey to the capitol city. And it's a long wait while I'm sitting in committee. Hopefully I'll be a law someday. But it's not likely to happen before the Superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thniking about doing beef on a kummelweck this year and really blow their minds. I'm considering Beef on 'Weck sliders as my "dish to pass" at the party. I'll do a roast in the slow-cooker and put some dinner rolls in the oven with egg wash to hold to some kosher salt & caraway seeds. Bring along some fresh prepared horseradish and I'm done. But I'll probably get lazy and do a multi-layered dip with tortilla chips. That always works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
