I was involved in a crazy cruise argument when a young 'lady' removed my daughter's towel from the chair next to me, picked it up and was about to take it when i told her it was my daughter's. Her reply was ' she isn't here' and walked away with the chair. I simply said 'RUDE'. she replied with a smirk 'sorry to ruin your cruise' i said 'Barbie, you aren't ruining anything for me , just move along. She continued her smack talk from about 20 feet away, i ignored her. Karma finally kicked in and i grabbed a clamshell near me that was vacated and offered to me by the occupants that had witnessed the 'altercation'
Yes, when a platinum status man on Carnival told my bestie to F--- Off because he thought she was in the wrong line at guest service bragging that he is platinum and cut infront off her, bumping into her as he pushed his way past her. She told him off good. She was in the correct guest service line he was just an A-hole.
It does sound like the old lady cut in line and is taking advantage of her age. Some people are a-holes, and they don't suddenly stop becoming a-holes when they get older.
Can't stand people like the old lady. She knew darn well she was cutting in line and I'm sure she does it everywhere. Employee should have stood up to her.
I don't see how "respecting the rude person" is a action, as people have previously said she's probably been like this all her life. Manners cost nothing.
As a granny myself, I guarantee that granny was totally butting in line & no doubt did it at the art auction & anywhere else she could! She was way too ready for a confrontation! Not her first.
@gregdrivesdriver5104 Sure, we can give people some privilege based on their age... but just because someone is older does not mean they can be disrespectful, nor does it mean she can do whatever she pleases. Her attitude and actions didn't come from being old. This came from a lifetime of doing this same thing. She didn't care about Respecting other people, if she did she would not have flipped the switch after getting older and stopped Respecting others.
@@gregdrivesdriver5104 No, age does NOT automatically get respect, respect is earned. BTW, I am 80 years old and know what I am talking about. Certainly it is the kind thing to offer a seat to someone frail or mobility challenged. Definitely respect your elders. However, once someone speaks or acts with an entitled mentality, no matter what their age, all bets are off. There is no age restrictions on courtesy and civility.
I've been telling myself for the past year that cruising now really sucks. Cruising doesn't suck, people do. Thanks for giving your seat up Tony, don't change.
We took this exact sailing , on the Island Princess. Never before had we ever observed such entitled rude , obnoxious seniors. As a person in my sixties i have never been more shocked or dimayed by the actions of this demographic. Shame on us, we are to be an example of kindnes and restraint. What an example for the younger generation. The good book is right. You get what you sew. We can all do better. GROW UP.
I was just on a Disney cruise. I was the first in line for a character interaction/ autograph. A gentleman turned up and we were talking when I found out that he was waiting on behalf of his autistic adult son, so I let him in front of me. We’re having a chat as the queue gets bigger behind us when this woman using a walker walks up and tells us she’d been waiting elsewhere ( I’d seen her sat in the lobby, so nowhere near the line). She then pushes in front of the man and me as we were both speechless at her audacity. My husband and children( who were waiting elsewhere as my child was also autistic and couldn’t do lines) turn up and we take the photo etc. My husband then tells me that she’d been doing it all week, sometimes using the waiting elsewhere excuse, other times using her disability to push in ( she couldn’t try that this time as I’m a electric wheelchair user). She even attempted to push in whilst checking in for our post cruise hotel, but got sent to the back by the hotel staff. Some people just live their lives believing queues are for other people.
@gregdrivesdriver5104 seriously...that doesn't give her license to do whatever she wants wherever she wants. She forfeited any respect that should be given by disrespecting others.
Always be a example of how the world should be! Tony, I know that most people that heard your story will completely miss the point. You showed generosity and kindness. Most people can't see the forest in a ship of seats.
As an old geezer, I have no doubt that the granny was a professional queue-jumper. Kudos to the gent that at least tried to put her in her place. Cruising used to be where you use your best behavior, but that seems to be in the past. It looks like the popular shows need to have reserved seating. That will require more work for the crew but it will avoid some confrontations and unpleasantness.
Perhaps they should use a 'take a numbered ticket from a roll' system so there can be no argument about who is next in line to be served for whatever is in short supply 😅
Princess ‘s fault! Totally avoidable 1) crew to verify cabin category at door 2) crew escort to priority section( cordoned off) 3)time stamp wait line cruisers. All to do with costs!!
Better idea - no special seats for special people. All of the seats should be first come, first served, for everyone. It looked like half of the seats are "saved". Also, about saving seats - we always get our seats, and then take turns visiting the bathroom. Can we not do that?
@@jimroscovius It's not "special people" it's people who have paid for the perk. I mean.... they could have "Premiere Member Only" shows and everyone gets a seat because they paid the extra.
This has happened, more than once, to me. I'm older, small, and quiet. I arrive very early, stand where I think is correct, then unbeknown to me...a line forms. I am then given the evil eye for getting a seat first. And, I am Diamond+...these are other elites that frown at me for getting the best elite seat.
Last year I sailed on MSC in the Yacht club which also comes with reserved seating for Yacht Club passengers. We arrived early and were sat by our butler in the middle of the section. Several empty seats were still available when the lights went down and no sooner had that happened then people started climbing over seats just to get to these empty seats. It’s nothing to me whether you paid for them or not but when the show was over both parties on each side of us wouldn’t let us leave. We stood up and said nicely excuse me to both sides only to be met with cold silence and no attempt to move an inch. Finally fed up with their stupidity I just charged forward stepping on feet and taking knees with me. If someone wants to leave, especially when the show is OVER maybe just shuffle your feet aside, it costs you nothing. I think they thought I should climb over seats in heels and a dress.
Phones should be shut off, the woman next to me was us8ng two phones while the show was on, I asked before the show to please them off but nope, had to make snide comment about her being nice. She left, why come to the show to play with your phones in the dark.
I was just at a show at Hard Rock Casino, Hollywood. Same thing happened. People playing in their phones. It was an older crowd. ( of which I am one ) and it was obvious they didn’t know how to put their phones on a dark background mode. Smart watches are also annoying. People kept getting alerts, the watches would light up etc.
No atmosphere like that and the artists would not come to do a show to an empty theatre. Just stay and watch tv and not bother with a show if that's what you like. The shows to me are a big part of the cruise.
Being a “lady” of a certain age myself, the use of the word “lady” to describe that obnoxious women is a travesty. A lady has manners and would never take advantage of others in the situation which you describe. I am tired of older men and women who think that they are entitled to do the unacceptable, just because they have reached a certain age. Hope you were able to enjoy the show, Tony, in spite of its rough beginning. Loved your commentary of Iceland and Greenland! Thank you! From Elaine la profe in NJ.
A lot of people I encounter seem to feel entitled to receive everything they want when they want it - if they don’t they get their knickers in a twist and make others suffer
Sometimes I wish I had the guts to say "you are a rude person", especially when people have completely lost all sense of manners and politeness. 🙂 I am so shocked by some people's behavior recently. I hope we can all be examples of sanity. 🙂
Agreed. That's what the line should do. However, I suspect they don't, knowing the shows are a big draw and use it to scam people into the premium internet package, which may not go over so big with the older crowd Princess tends to draw. Otherwise, why wouldn't they put this in place or at least have a crew member assigned to regulate situations like this?
I’ve seen an argument and it was also in the theater. What a pain to have to do reservations for seating but with so many people and so few seats it makes sense and would avoid having to deal with any of that. And another plus would be not having to waste 90 minutes of your time waiting in line.
I'm glad he stood up. She probably did cut in line. He was justified to yell at Grandma and everyone in line did you he right thing by STANDING IN LINE
I had a granny sit down in my atrium seat on the Prima when I went to the restroom. My buddy said to her, that seat's taken. She said, well they're not here, are they? I let her have that seat and was going to do the same thing when she got up to use the bathroom. She sat there for three hours straight. Haha
No, Tony, rude people need to be called out and stood up to. Shouldn't be the case, but that's what entitled people do with impunity. I feel bad for the cruise employees forced to deal with the issue. And I'm a real life Nana!
I have to say I’m with the man, he said what he had to say and brought out that this is her thing , like cutting in at the art auction. He probably sat down because he was going to let the event escalate and miss enjoying the performance. Don’t get me wrong I don’t think people should go around being disrespectful for Hahas but sometimes things need to be called out. And I’m quite sure she wasn’t there for 35 minutes because the caller outer who called to have u checked would’ve done same. And some people think that they are entitled to what they want and you all have to deal with it. But I also think we all need to be chill and enjoy what we can without being a….holes. Just saying. Love your videos
I remember camping out overnight in greasy parking lots to buy concert tickets in the 1980s. If we wanted to see a show, we had to put some skin in the game.
Easy solution to this issue is to make the Premier seats for Premier passengers only. Do not open them up 5 minutes before the show. If they remain empty, they remain empty.
That's stupid. Why leave seats open when they have customers who want them? Theaters and Broadway release choice seats that they hold back at the last minute for the same reason. All the cruise line has to do is hand out numbers to those waiting for premier seats that remain empty. First come, first served. It's not rocket science!
Not my job to police the seats, or the (possibly) rude behavior of another passenger. Unless they threaten me, my wife, I'm not bothering with these arguments. Only exception would be intervening if someone is about to be injured, and there is no ship security present.
old people are bad mannered too! they may be ancient - but their parents never taught them how to behave properly. i cruise a lot but haven't been on a princess cruise lately. am taking one in october. have come across lots of rude people with children - though. they get on the ship and get drunk the whole time - abandoning their kids essentially. and when you ask them to please supervise their unruly children - in the pool for instance - they're taken aback! never fails to amaze me i have been taking my son on cruises since he was 6 - and i have been taken on cruises by my mum since childhood too - and we accepted that good manners are always expected everywhere we go. while people jumping the cue is annoying - does it really matter, people? there are rude people everywhere in the world! just ignore it and move on. but a mob are the rudest of all.
Okay, this was the best story! I had baited breath waiting on edge of the seat for this story. You did not let me down.😅 People watching is the best activity on the ship 😂
If the shows keep having lack of seating for people to see the show then maybe they should add an additional show, since they can’t make more space for seating. Maybe have an afternoon matinee show, some people may enjoy going to an early show especially if it is appropriate for children or those who like/want an early night (got to get up early for the next port😉😉).
Big fan for the last year! Haven't laughed this hard in a long time, thank you. Keep up the hard work. Appreciate your storytelling and unvarnished truth. Love your content and twisted humor. 😂
We were on a Royal Caribbean cruise recently. They have a perk called the “Key” which includes reserved seating for shows. One night my family and other Key members were seated where a cruise employee had told us to sit. A few moments later a Concierge approached us and very rudely told us all to move because his clients were arriving and we were in their seats. We explained that a Key rep had put us there and no other seats were now available. The Concierge treated us all very badly. Terrible experience. We will never cruise RC again!
@@rosanna3765 Yes, the concierge was a RC employee. We did not contact Guest Services about situation. Put the incident behind us and enjoyed rest of trip.
I think it’s awesome that you and Don are not only friends but that you cruise together. You both have great channels that are full of useful informative and entertaining. Love watching you both. Thank you for your wonderful content.
Just another example how angry this world is becoming. No respect and no decency demonstrated. Good on you for giving up your front row seat for that couple, but I can't understand why that granny was not in the line up if she had been there over 30 minutes waiting for the Premier seats.
I remember you moving from Don's seat to up to the blue seats. We were sitting close to the stairs to the ground level and you passed us by when you changed seats. I didn't know all that drama was going on! It was nice seeing you again. - Louis (the guy that sang Junior's Farm to you) D108.
I had an argument with a woman, not on a cruise, but at the Barrington Stage Company in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. This theater company is well-known and popular with people driving up from NYC. I had booked a particular seat, middle of the first row, on the first day of ticket sales. I need that particular seat because i have to sit in the front row due to ADD but, being up so close, i can’t be even one seat off dead center because I had had neck surgery and it was extremely painful for me to have my neck at even a slight angle for an extended period (I cannot talk to someone sitting on my right or left because of having to turn my neck.) So, this old couple comes in and the man sits on the seat to my left. The woman expects me to move to the seat to my right so she can sit next to her husband. I refused. I said I’d booked that seat ten months earlier and cannot change, for medical reasons. She was furious. I was not about to go into my medical details. So she sat in the seat to my right and kvetched through the whole performance.

this might be the old lady's very last cruise, and she is taking the entire ship with her.
Right when they get older they get better at doing it.
This happens quite often in Asian stores. They take advantage that they're female, old. They clearly see a line, yet they just step right on up.
Man, the poor crew… it’s like supervising kindergarten kids! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can't stand people like the old lady. She knew darn well she was cutting in line and I'm sure she does it everywhere. Employee should have stood up to her.
You expect the foreign cruise worker to be rude because that's what you expect? Some people in this world know that older people should be respected.

They should do a seat selection pre booking online. So you know what’s open and what’s taken and no one is in your seat. Like movie theaters do

Maybe it is Princess' fault for not accounting for ALL customers to have a seat in an enlarged auditorium instead of building more cabins for revenue.
Exactly. On MSC they have 3 shows each night to accommodate everyone and it’s a reservation system. No problems!
Absolutely!
It’s definitely an issue. I’m really not down for waiting 90 -120 minutes prior for a show to start! That’s not how I want to spend my vacation.
If Granny was their before the queue formed (35 minutes?) she could have found another seat in the theater.
Easy solution to this issue is to make the Premier seats for Premier passengers only. Do not open them up 5 minutes before the show. If they remain empty, they remain empty.
or, have a dedicated wait line like RCL does.
Not an efficient use of a limited resource.
That's stupid. Why leave seats open when they have customers who want them? Theaters and Broadway release choice seats that they hold back at the last minute for the same reason. All the cruise line has to do is hand out numbers to those waiting for premier seats that remain empty. First come, first served. It's not rocket science!
MSC has the best system for shows. You make a reservation and they scan your card as you come in. No fights no fuss.
Tony, you are hands down the best storyteller ever! Thanks for the extremely entertaining story!
The Princess Theater Pre Show: “The Musical Chair Soap Opera” 🤣
That says something about the show and something about Princess. Seems like you are right, new system needed.
This was like having a pre-show production before the main event 😂
We almost always wait for the later show. Never a problem getting a seat!
Not my job to police the seats, or the (possibly) rude behavior of another passenger. Unless they threaten me, my wife, I'm not bothering with these arguments. Only exception would be intervening if someone is about to be injured, and there is no ship security present.
It is a sign of the times. People don't know how to interact with each other
Your stories are always so interesting, you're a true gentlemen Tony, not yelling at the Granny and giving up your seat!!
old people are bad mannered too! they may be ancient - but their parents never taught them how to behave properly. i cruise a lot but haven't been on a princess cruise lately. am taking one in october. have come across lots of rude people with children - though. they get on the ship and get drunk the whole time - abandoning their kids essentially. and when you ask them to please supervise their unruly children - in the pool for instance - they're taken aback!
never fails to amaze me
i have been taking my son on cruises since he was 6 - and i have been taken on cruises by my mum since childhood too - and we accepted that good manners are always expected everywhere we go.
while people jumping the cue is annoying - does it really matter, people?
there are rude people everywhere in the world! just ignore it and move on.
but a mob are the rudest of all.
I just came off a cruise ship and there are definitely more people that just "shoot their mouths off" unnecessarily 😅
This was a great episode! You are a fantastic story teller. Smiled, laughed and felt like i was in the theater watching the events. Thanks so much 😊
Okay, this was the best story! I had baited breath waiting on edge of the seat for this story. You did not let me down.😅 People watching is the best activity on the ship 😂
Your such a good story teller .Thanks LOL
If the shows keep having lack of seating for people to see the show then maybe they should add an additional show, since they can’t make more space for seating. Maybe have an afternoon matinee show, some people may enjoy going to an early show especially if it is appropriate for children or those who like/want an early night (got to get up early for the next port😉😉).
Get off my lawn. Granny's like I dare ya! I double dog dare ya! 😂😂😂😂
I don’t what it is but you set my Siri off every time I watch your video. The Danger Zone started playing on my apple home!! 😂
90 minutes before the show! That's crazy!
great storytelling Tony!
Big fan for the last year! Haven't laughed this hard in a long time, thank you. Keep up the hard work. Appreciate your storytelling and unvarnished truth. Love your content and twisted humor. 😂
No act of kindness ever goes unpunished.
You hadn’t moved you would’ve missed all the fireworks! Ha ha ha ha
I haven’t laughed out loud like this for months. Lol
Great post Tony ! I felt like I was there lol😂
This was one of the best cruise stories I've ever heard. My wife and I were laughing through as you were sharing the details.
Thank you, Tony. I never saw an argument on a cruise.
We were on a Royal Caribbean cruise recently. They have a perk called the “Key” which includes reserved seating for shows. One night my family and other Key members were seated where a cruise employee had told us to sit. A few moments later a Concierge approached us and very rudely told us all to move because his clients were arriving and we were in their seats. We explained that a Key rep had put us there and no other seats were now available. The Concierge treated us all very badly. Terrible experience. We will never cruise RC again!
Hope you made a complaint. Was this Concierge an employee of Royal?
@@rosanna3765 Yes, the concierge was a RC employee. We did not contact Guest Services about situation. Put the incident behind us and enjoyed rest of trip.
Omgosh- talk about spilling the tea! I'm LOL. I follow your Lego channel and this popped up. I am intrigued, actually more- entertained. Subscribed 👍
That sounds so chaotic. Maybe more shows to alleviate
I think it’s awesome that you and Don are not only friends but that you cruise together. You both have great channels that are full of useful informative and entertaining. Love watching you both. Thank you for your wonderful content.
Just another example how angry this world is becoming. No respect and no decency demonstrated. Good on you for giving up your front row seat for that couple, but I can't understand why that granny was not in the line up if she had been there over 30 minutes waiting for the Premier seats.
As judge Judy says, no good deed goes unpunished. Unfortunate, but true. All a cause of too many people chasing too few resources.
I laughed so hard at "I feel like maybe my face has gone akimbo." 🤣 I'm gonna start using that one!
This was better than any comedy shows. Thanks for the entertainment. First time I ever laughed out loud so many times during your videos. 😂
Tony, I was waiting for your classic line “ and the seeds of chaos had been sewn”. Funny hearing it in your Blarney Stone trip video.
And where was the shout out to Ludicrous for the song mentioned? I was forced to say it myself!!
You are SO GOOD at story telling!
🎉 you are a great story teller Tony
Mad 😡 Max 😮 criuse lines. .... Must have been a FULL 🌕 MOON 🌕 😮😮😮
Who would have thought.... I thought Carnival is where you go for wild cruise fights and arguments.
😂 Tony was VIP in the premiere seats ❤ it
I remember you moving from Don's seat to up to the blue seats. We were sitting close to the stairs to the ground level and you passed us by when you changed seats. I didn't know all that drama was going on! It was nice seeing you again. - Louis (the guy that sang Junior's Farm to you) D108.
Tony, I am cracking up. My goodness!😂😂😂😂😂
Ok--I laughed out loud and from the gut---granny won!!!😂😂😂
I had an argument with a woman, not on a cruise, but at the Barrington Stage Company in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. This theater company is well-known and popular with people driving up from NYC. I had booked a particular seat, middle of the first row, on the first day of ticket sales. I need that particular seat because i have to sit in the front row due to ADD but, being up so close, i can’t be even one seat off dead center because I had had neck surgery and it was extremely painful for me to have my neck at even a slight angle for an extended period (I cannot talk to someone sitting on my right or left because of having to turn my neck.) So, this old couple comes in and the man sits on the seat to my left. The woman expects me to move to the seat to my right so she can sit next to her husband. I refused. I said I’d booked that seat ten months earlier and cannot change, for medical reasons. She was furious. I was not about to go into my medical details. So she sat in the seat to my right and kvetched through the whole performance.
That is some story for the evening! 😮😂😂😂😂
Great story! I was riveted!
And I agree the lack of consequences for rudeness is getting out of hand.
