NCAA FB National Championship on the Lido Deck

Although the game was not as exciting as I like championship games to be, it was kind of exciting to watch it on the ship with a few hundred of "our closest friends!" And I was rooting for Bama, so the outcome was good... The Tide really rolled right over the Irish, who didn't appear to be fighting too hard!

I forgot to point out the family... In the second row on the left is our son, Jeff; the empty chair by him was usually occupied by daughter, Marisa (on a beverage run!); in the next chair is, Tim; in the chair behind and just to the right of Jeff is Marvin and the empty chair by him was mine.

@boycotting Thanks... I was sitting next to a family of born and bred Irish fans... We were all good sports, though. :)

Beautiful! I would have been tempted to float around in the pool while watching the game.

@elizabeth264 Thanks! I believe we did have a few pool users, but it wasn't super warm that night.

@digitalrn They originally were going to show the game in the sports bar, but it was packed by 2 hours before game time, so they moved it to the big screen on the Lido Deck. Lots of (disappointed) Irish fans on that cruise! :)
