Illusion Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Womens Gymnastics this morn: Volleyball Yest: Swimming Yest: Mens Gymnastics http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/olympics/article-2180563/London-2012-Olympics-Soldiers-students-seats.html It looks like the problem has been caused by the expensive tickets not being fully sold out, and the tickets given to sponsors and dignitaries have not been fully used. Seb Coe has now come out and said that it won't happen in the future games. I think he's thinking wishfully tbh. I personally think that this is a massive pisstake. Most events that you watch you can see that the party atmosphere is further back where the cheaper tickets are. This has essentially been caused by greed. They should have offered the tickets to small sports clubs up at discount rates when they knew they weren't selling (e.g. offered the unsold Volleyball tickets to Volleyball clubs). They would have got people that were actually interested in the sports watching them then. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thun Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Greed getting the better of them and making the games look dry These tickets should of been dished out to schools Aint seeing many young people just upper crust toffee types Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illusion Posted July 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 This is what I'm saying. I originally tried to get Handball tickets when they went on sale because it's a sick sport. Nextly quick. But they were sold out. Now the seats are empty?! I'm sure there is actually a ticket office somewhere where you can get tickets on the day, but surprise surprise I can't find out any info online about it.
