100 More Reasons to go on a Backstreet Boys Cruise

So it appears that the cruise isn't sold out yet, which just amazes me!! So for anyone out there who needs further convincing, I expanded on my previous list of 101 Reasons to go on a Backstreet Boy Cruise and put together 100 MORE reasons why you should have no excuse not to cruise with the Backstreet Boys. 

100 More Reasons to go on a Backstreet Boys Cruise

1. It's the only place you can hear the boys sing 'If You Want it to be Good Girl' live
2. It costs as little as $13.50/hour which is way better than the price per hour at a concert. So if you think about it, you're really losing money if you don't go.... 
3. See if you can keep up with Howie's drinking
   
   
   
   
   
4. Admit defeat when you realize you can't even come close to keeping up with Howie
5. Get free drinks compliments of BSB (While its only for an hour, but hey, you can still say Nick Carter technically bought you a drink)
6. I swear there are more concert bloopers on the cruise than I've seen in a lifetime of land-based concerts (Nick Blooper, AJ Blooper, Another Nick Blooper,Yet another Nick Blooper). Maybe I should correct myself and say there are lot of Nick bloopers on board.
7. Witness Brian's super competitive side come out during the game shows and beach games as well (Note his game face below)
