OK - I don't know if anybody can help me with this or not. We, here in Detroit, are out of our minds with joy because our Tigers are going to the World Series. Naturally, my DH and I will miss EVERY SINGLE GAME because we will be on the Navigator in the Med from next Saturday (Game 1) until the 28th (Game 6, if necessary), then in Paris for the potential Game 7. We went to Game 3 of the ALCS and talked seriously, for about one minute, about postponing the trip. We got hold of our senses and are now trying to figure out how we can keep up with what's going on in Detroit and St Louis or NY while we're away.

Here's my question - Does anybody know if we will be able to follow the games on TV on board? And, yes, I know that they will be played in the middle of the night, Europe time. Also, we are bringing our laptop with WiFI so we can follow the action that way, at least.

Frustrating and kooky.

Thanks,
Colleen

Colleen, my guess is that your WiFi will be the way to follow the Tigers, but some of the more recent cruisers may be able to tell you more. If it were my team, I'd be just like you -- wanting every detail!

Colleen, we were in the Caribbean on the Navigator last year during the Super Bowl. RSSC did a great job broadcasting the game - large screen and tailgate party on the pool deck. Lots of Steeler fans in full regalia. Perhaps there will be a similar setup on your cruise. It wouldn't hurt to check in with the social director when you board.

btw -- I'm a "still stunned" Yankees fan who realizes that the Tigers seem to be the team of destiny this year. Good luck and enjoy!!

Welcome to LCT, Gibbsville Girl! I noticed that was your first post.

Thank you Priscilla! Long time lurker who finally took the plunge and registered. The info I've found on this board has been incredibly helpful. My DH and I have been on two RSSC cruises in the past and hope for many more.

Apologies Colleen, don't want to hijack your thread.

No worries. Can't offer you a ton of sympathy on the Yankees, though. I think it is defintely the Tigers' year. We're a bit worried about the week long layoff but our pitching should carry the day. Thanks!

Colleen - you're probably already in transit for your cruise but I'm guessing you might be checking in since you'll have your laptop with you. I thought I'd let you know that at least one LCT member will be here in MI rooting for the Tigers to win the World Series!
