Finally! A Seat at the Olympics!

I guess I have to give at least a little nod to CoSport. It is almost the end of the Olympics, but they did finally manage to get their website working properly (as in you can actually get on it and some of those empty stadium seats are actually available for sale). I was actually able to get a ticket to an Olympic event, so I won't have to spend the entire 2 1/2 weeks in an Olympic city without ever entering a stadium. Off to see athletics Saturday night. Still crossing my fingers for a gymnastic event of some sort (looks like rhythmic's all that's left), but something's better than nothing. I'll let you all know what it's like to actually be in the Bird's Nest (I got what I suppose is a great seat in the second row). I know exactly zero about what I'll be watching, but hey, it's the Olympics, right? Should be fun.
