    NFL Games Televised?

    We will be on the Conquest in December.  Does anyone know if the NFL games are televised on the ship either in the sports bar or on the big outdoor screen?  Specifically, we are looking for the Dallas Cowboys that play on December 13th and 19th. This is not an important issue for me but my husband is an NFL fan. Thanks for any light you may shed on this issue.

    They SHOULD be showing the games.  I have had cruises where they didn't as they had issues with the satellite so I would tell him yes, unless there are technical difficulties.

    You may not see these games.  The ships pickup channels from Denver.  Since neither of these games are against the Broncos, you may be out of luck.  However, on the 13th, Denver plays the early game, so it would depend what the late national game is that day.  On the 19th, the game is being telecast on NFL Network.  The ships don't carry the NFL Network, so you would not see that game.

     

    I may be wrong on these points.  If I am, I am sure that I will be corrected.

    A big "thank you" to all that responded to my question.  Football is not our world so if my husband does not get to see the game, so be it.  It will just be fun for him to cruise AND see his football games.  I can't think of anything better than being on a cruise but it will just be the cherry on top for him.  Guess we will have to wait and see if it is televised. Thanks again for your prompt answers. I appreciate it.

    If they happen to be playing a nationally televised game, ie Sunday/Monday night, then yes they will televise it throughout the ship. If it's a regional game to local markets only then it's likely they won't show it. Carnival's satellite feed is from Denver. Don't have a clue why, but I can imagine the outrage onboard the Conquest if it's not shown. I have always been lucky to catch the game. Just lucky they were NBC and ESPN. Best of luck!
