Open Post: Hosted By The Golden Girls Cruise!
Cruises are (sometimes literally) a crapshoot. There’s a chance that you’ll have a tremendous time boozing, shopping, laying around in the sun, and hopefully getting laid by that hot cabin boy. On the flipside, you might get a norovirus along with 474 of your fellow passengers or disappear forever. But now there is absolutely no need for a coin flip by fate as to how your cruise is going to go. Because there’s a Golden Girls-themed one which will be the bestest cruise in history! Book me now!
According to the A.V. Club, Minneapolis-based party promoters Flip Phone Events decided to turn their Golden Girls bar crawls (I need to move to Prince’s city if that’s a thing) into a cruise adventure!
The cruise will embark on February 24, 2020 from Miami and will make stops at Key West and Cozumel, Mexico before returning on Feb 29. A cabin will reportedly cost $1000 per guest and the voyage will include a “One Night in St. Olaf” dance party and a “The Rusty Anchor Karaoke Party.”
There won’t be any actual Golden Girls on the ship because most of the cast is dead. And don’t expect Betty White to show up because she’s divine royalty and far too busy (and probably doesn’t want to risk having to use a plastic bag as a toilet). But imagine the various types of cheesecake and drag queens AS the Golden Girls (and maybe Freida Klaxton!) and an exhibit of Stan’s wigs! SIGN ME UP.
