Olympics?

[jeppler]

Do you think Disney might show the opening Olympic ceremonies on the Dumbo-tron? We'll be on the Fantasy that week...

Olympics is televised on NBC not ABC (owned by Disney) My guess is (not from experience) is perhaps at a bar if someone requests it.

Because of the position of the ship in different countries, since the Olympics broadcast rights are sold country by country, not sure if Disney would be allowed to...

I'm hoping so, we go the week after you and love watching the Olympics!

Disney can't show the olympics on board the ship because NBC has the exclusive right and even if they could pick it up they would have to pay NBC for those rights is what my understanding is. They do however provide updates on them in the daily news they shove under your door. At least they did in 2008 when I was on the Panama Canal cruise.
