    I was in a 5 star hotel in Bali. Someone had purchased some play guns for 2 boys. I saw them shooting Koi in the decorative stream running through the hotel. The gun was strong enough to kill the fish. I contacted the front desk and the family was immediately removed from the hotel by the police. They came back the next day but the hotel refused to let them stay and no refund. I happened to be sitting in the airy lobby reading when it unfolded. All the pleading and begging didn’t get the result they wanted. It was super high season so few quality hotels would be available. Play stupid games win stupid prizes. Those guns would have been confiscated at the airport in a heartbeat.

    We were recently on Royal and there was a group playing LRC for money in the Viking lounge. The only thing that made me shake my head was that they were playing while there was a small music ensemble singing/playing. They didn’t care and they weren’t quiet. I thought that was very rude to the entertainers!

    I genuinely love the way that you address these obnoxious, entitled, ignorant cruisers (lol; I’ve yet to cruise and I already knew better). Thanks for bringing humor, giving some grace and making it a teachable moment. Truly, informative and entertaining.
    As “just a guy”, I’ll be more blunt. I’m sick to death of people (who seem disproportionately to be Americans) who think that somehow every rule should be bent or broken just for them. No. Stop. If I were in charge, the ban hammer! 🔨Really. Ignorance and misunderstanding are forgivable. Hell, it’s okay to disagree. But in both instances, there was zero reason for these cruisers to be upset.
    And in all seriousness, folks like this need to face consequences.

    Gaming is a highly regulated activity and since most cruise ships follow Nevada gaming laws, there’s probably a prohibition against unorganized gambling outside of the ship’s gaming licensing.

  • @ricknolte6846
    @ricknolte6846 День назад +4

    On my most recent cruise, not a group cruise, we had a Facebook page with probably around 30-40 people posting that was started several months before embarkation. Once on the ship a group slot pull was organized where everyone put in $20, and everyone got 5 pulls on the chosen machine. At the end there was over $4200.00, and those who played walked away about $100 richer. There are ways to gamble, have fun and stay within the rules on the ship.
    As for the toy gun? Common sense ain't so common.

    Before getting on a plane or a cruise ship, I make sure to check the prohibited items list. And I mean like a week before, just to be sure nothing has changed. I'll be figuring out what version of an extension cord-like thing I can bring before my next cruise. What I have was fine before but it may not be now, so I'll check. I don't want any part of my cruise (or flight) to be less enjoyable because I won't be able to have something I brought with me. That might suck. Possibly even a lot, especially when it comes to my setup for charging devices. I use my cell phone as a noise machine while I sleep so that thing needs to be plugged in while I sleep, and there aren't always ways to charge them by the bed. So yeah, I'll be checking. I'm responsible for my choices, and choosing not to check first is crazy.

    On a recent cruise, one of the cruisers brought mini ducks, and you could “buy” three mini ducks to play LRC and then get your $ “refunded” if you won.

    Left Right Center is also 'banned on NCL'. Since its considered "gambling" and money involved, it has to be governed. Playing in Casino would not get around the gambling laws. Probably the only way to 'get around it' would be to play in someone's cabin OR play for something besides money. PS...trade your candy in for money with the game organizer in their cabin or something IF you have to play for actual money.

    We did a Halloween cruise and before we went I went through security at several levels including someone over the ships security about me & my sister bringing my Ghostbusters Proton packs since we planned to dress up as Ghostbusters. They said they didn't think anyone would do anything as long as we were not acting up with them. If security did have a problem and told us to put them in the room then we would have to. Lucky no one had an issue.

    The probable reason that you can't gamble outside the casino is laws. In the waters that belong to any nation, the laws of that nation apply. Imagine the legal morass the cruise ship could be in if you're caught.
    It's much much easier to go to the game store and get monopoly money, or little coloured disks, or any other sort of counter. Heck, you can use farm animals. "I'll take your pig. And the pteroydactl. Hey, how did a pterodactyl get in here?"
