Will the Treasure have a venue for watching the College football finals?

[bobbiwoz]

I sure hope so. We’ll be on the Treasure on January 20.

I am not sure where, but my sister-in-law just got back from the Maiden Voyage, and she said her husband kept heading off to watch football, so it is there somewhere!

I believe it is in Periscope Pub, heard it was hard to get a seat there because of all the footballs going on.

Folks were watching the Ohio State/Oregon game in Periscope Pub.

Since it’s also on ESPN it should presumably be available in the staterooms.

Can't speak to the Treasure but on the Magic, they did. But as a retired TV person, I will warn you that the ships tend to use the "East Coast" TV feeds, so if there are two games at the same time, and there is a game that may be of greater interest to East Coast viewers, and the game you are interested in is of more interest to West Coast viewers, there is a chance it may not be available.

There’s only 1 game that night in the football sphere. It’s the College Football Playoff Championship.

It has been in Periscope Pub and some football has been shown in one of the two movie theaters... don't know if it was college or NFL

This makes me hopeful!

Periscope pub and they put it on then if screen in hero lounge but kids still play games in there like basketball so not ideal. It’s on your stateroom and you can also stream the game on your phone from your stateroom. A new feature which worked well watching the lions last Monday night on the treasure

There’s a chance they put it on funnel vision. They do that for nfl late round playoffs/ Super Bowl.

I would say almost certain to this. We’ve cruised a number of times in Janury, and I’ve watched a number of college championship games, both on funnel vision and in the onboard pub. I remember one year when it was Georgia vs. Alabama where the Georgia contingent had taken over the pub and the ‘Bama contingent had congregated on the pool deck. Always a fun time, even if you don’t have a particular rooting interest in the particular matchup.

Last week, NFL games were shown in Periscope Pub and Herozone, according to navigators published online. NCAA games were shown in the Pub only. As others have stated, some of these games may also be available through stateroom TVs.

But playoffs/championships are handled differently.

I was going to say that! We were on the Magic at Thanksgiving and they had football on Funnel Vision starting at noon and then on Friday night they had the UT game on Funnel Vision after dinner. It was also in O'Gills.

 

[bobbiwoz]

I think it will be in our room!

 

[JM_97]

It helps that it will be on ESPN.

Side note - am I imagining that there used to be an ESPN bar on the Magic/Wonder? I vaguely remember seeing it in promos back in the day.
