A:

Quote:
Each heading indicates the total number of sessions remaining for that sport; sessions listed under each are no longer available or are down to single seats only.
So, as example...

Quote:
Ice Hockey (46 sessions left)
IH009 - Men's Prelim CAN-NOR
IH019 - Men's Prelim SUI-CAN
IH031 - Men's Prelim CAN-USA
IH050 - Men's Gold Medal
I read this as -- tickets are available for all hockey except preliminary rds with Canada and the Gold Medal game. Kind of makes sense -- the first tickets to go were the Canada Hockey games plus the Figure Skating Free skates.

Looks like there are still tix available for the ceremonies though, which is cool... how much longer I'm willing to wait is a diff story though.

Fuck, I completely forgot.

Started trying at 12:30, got into 15 waiting rooms and within 20 mins I was in.

Got some quarterfinal mens Hockey and some curling which includes Canada vs. USA.

I can't believe I forgot... had a system. No gold for me

its bullshit, i finally got past the waiting room, now when im buying tickets it keeps saying

All available tickets in the quantity you have requested for this session are currently held in other customers’ shopping carts or are in the process of being purchased by other customers.

Recommendation: Try searching for one ticket at a time when pairs are no longer available. Great single seats may remain — though single seats won’t be seated together, purchasing single seats is the best way to ensure that you don’t miss your event!

have u guys heard of "Pin trading"? I only found out about this recently and was told that its very popular during the olympics. Personally I think its fucking retarded and just another money grab. Was going through this pamphlet we have at work and theres like 250 of these pins and each one sells for $10. Now think of all the olympic-fanatics that are going to blow their money on this! lol

I'm pro-olympics and look forward to them, what are your guys' thoughts on "pin trading" and have you heard about it before? :S

Buddies and I all entered the lottery. I didn't get any but my buddies each scored 20 tickets. It was something along the lines of $1500-2000 each. Of course it depends on the events in the package.

Just got this in my email:

Quote:
The Ceremonies Cast Team is looking for a few more MALE volunteer performers. Do you know any guys who would like a chance to be part of the show? Give the gift of Olympic participation this holiday season - refer a guy! Our next (and hopefully last) audition for men only will be Wednesday evening. We still have a few unfilled spots in a variety of roles. Some have rehearsals starting immediately; some don't start until January. If you know any guys 17 or older who might enjoy being a volunteer performer, please have them register online at http://ceremonies2010.com/register and use the Source Code: RD2010. We will call selected applicants by Tuesday to schedule them for a simple and quick audition Wednesday night between 7:30 and 9pm. Please note that most available roles do not require dance skills: athleticism and general movement ability are all that is needed.

Thanks,The Ceremonies Cast TeamCast Hotline: 778-331-3300
Rehearsal schedules are pretty intense, usually 2x a week, especially starting mid-January. Most of my schedule just says PM or All Day, lol!
