"The Deadliest Catch" Comes to Epcot

What: The Discovery Channel series, "The Deadliest Catch"
When: July 10-13, 2008
Where: The Puffin's Roost, Norway Pavilion at Epcot's World Showcase
Who: Sig, Edgar and Norman Hansen

The popular Hansen brothers will appear inside The Puffin's Roost, Norway pavilion's merchandise location, each day. In addition to signing autographs and posing for photos, the Hansen brothers will have Northwestern merchandise for sale.

A fourth-generation Norwegian fisherman, Sig Hansen is the captain of the Northwestern, one of the crab-catching vessels on "The Deadliest Catch." He, Edgar and Norman own and operate the Northwestern. Based in Seattle, Wash., the Hansens have fished together for nearly 20 years. The Hansens' crab-catching skills on the television show also have inspired "Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm," a video game for the Xbox 360 system.

Oh how cool! DH and I watch Deadliest Catch every week, and the Northwestern happens to be DH's favorite boat. He's going to be so disappointed that we're not in WDW this week!

ah man I wish I could be there. I love the show.

**TINKERBELL_82** · 07-07-2008, 12:39 PM

Also love that show! We watch it every Tuesday. Its funny that Sig is in Epcot this week- The captain that has to have a cup of noodles (of the Wizard, I believe) was in Sarasota all weekend.

We saw Sig there last December. The line to meet him was insane. We stood near the end of the line for about 25 minutes, and we didn't move an inch.

So, we didn't wait around, but it was cool to be able to see him.

my mom loves this show! sometimes she makes me watch it...I don't get it!
I better not tell her they will be there...

ARGH!

I got to meet Sig and have my picture taken with him last December and it was awesome.

I'd kill to get to meet Edgar and Norman, too.

Darn! Won't be there, though. Maybe they'll be back ........

**cindchan** · 07-07-2008, 09:12 PM

Sweet!

Too bad I can't be there. But still, cool! Sig and Phil are just awesome!

(yes, yes, I know Phil won't be there, but he's still awesome!)

Cool! I love to watch that show.

**Ian** · 07-09-2008, 07:29 PM

If anyone is going to attend and wants to do a fella a HUGE favor, I'd love to get a Northwestern shirt auto'd by the three Hansens!

I'd obviously pay handsomely for it. PM me if you want to help a brutha out!

Here they are yesterday posing with Sebastian. (which is just ... wrong.)

That is so funny POLY! Thanks for posting the pic.

My daughter's are dying. They watch that show all the time. It is my DD13's favorite crew. I wished they would have waited for September to be there.
