Olympic Tickets

olympics_beijing_2008

Well, tickets for the 2008 Beijing Olympics are officially on sale right now. From what I understand, the olympic committee is attempting to do everything they can to make these tickets available and affordable for the chinese public. Now, one day I expressed my cynicism of this statement to a student and she then, out of playful spite, has officially applied for me to buy some tickets - ping pong and women’s gymnastics (for Kristin). The first phase is a lottery system which will determine whether or not I am in the game or not, and then if I am successful I just need to pay up. So, as it stands, I must now wait until sometime in June to see if I am a winner, but, the wheels are in motion - and I’m very excited! For more information on purchasing tickets for the 2008 Beijing Olympics click here. So, what do you think, are my pessimistic thoughts, in fact, correct, or will my student prove me wrong?
