\"Packers<\/a>When the Seattle Seahawks<\/a> try (again) to cruise past the Green Bay Packers<\/a> (they’ve \"Seahawks<\/a>never beaten Green Bay in the playoffs) next Sunday in the hope of winning the Super Bowl <\/a>(again), the cheering section will include anybody remotely connected to Princess Cruises<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The cruise line has scored a touchdown of its own by convincing the Seahawks  or some of them — to go on a cruise. It will be to Alaska<\/a> on the Crown Princess for a week in June, \"Crown\"<\/a>which is as good a time as any to see the 49th state, and if the Seahawks step on the ship as defending Super Bowl champions, the Crown Princess<\/a> will be as crowded as CenturyLink Field on any given Sunday after Labor Day.<\/p>\n

For Princess, the risk was low. There wasn’t anything in the Seahawks’ season that indicated they wouldn’t be playing football as one of the final four teams, which pretty much guarantees a sellout on the ship. Besides, there is such a rabid following in the Pacific Northwest that filling 3,080 beds on the Crown Princess should be no problem.<\/p>\n

The people in them will get to be up-close with some of their football heroes. It’s being called Sail With the Seahawks — A Cruise for the 12s<\/i>, and anybody who watches football \"12th<\/a>knows that 12 stands for the fans…the 12th man, so to speak. And speaking will be part of what Seahawks’ personnel do, while meeting and greeting their 12th player, participating in Q-and-A chalk talks and generally hanging out with the passengers.<\/p>\n

There will be activities that may not include players, such as Tailgate Parties, Movies Under The Stars and trivia contests. But for people wanting to OD on the Seahawks, this is a natural.<\/p>\n

Princess has been the “official” cruise line of the Seahawks since September, so doing something like this was also a natural, and there will surely be more of it with other cruise lines and other teams. <\/p>\n

This cruise is seven days return from Seattle<\/a>, of course, embarking June 20. You might think Princess would jack up the prices for something this special and while starting prices are higher than the same cruise on the same ship two weeks earlier, it’s only $100 more.<\/p>\n

And $100 would only get them a down payment on getting into Sunday’s game.<\/p>\n
