this is the whole lottery process

just read this post on CBC.ca comments section:

It is a joke that the tickets for the olympics were sold out in 7 minutes..
100000 gone .Madonna would be impressed on the ability of the ticket agents she took 10 minutes for 51000. Hard to believe the Games were meant for the people of BC.
The site crashed twice when I tried to go on and then was just pulled.
So it is safe to say that on Monday plenty of tickets will be available thru scalpers..I'm discussed

hypediss 11-07-2009 11:07 AM

the 1800 number is jammed too -_-

this blows to many proportions

VANOC: Olympic ticket website not working
No timeline for repairs

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - The last wave of Olympic tickets went on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday, but website problems are making things difficult for ticket buyers. VANOC says it is having technical problems with its website.

There's no word on what the problems could be, but they hope to have the site running smoothly soon. One News1130 listener e-mailed us to say he can't even log on.

Mike phoned News1130 and tells us he's had nothing but problems all morning. "It's been a nightmare. Forty-five minutes to get on the website and then once I was on I thought, 'OK, I'm going to buy tickets,' and then there was no link to actually buy the tickets. It kept taking me back to a screen that said 'Phase Two tickets go on sale in June."

Mike adds it's a major issue for people who've been waiting months to get their tickets and it's nothing but frustrating.

To try and get your tickets click here . News1130 is the official radio station of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games.
