I just realised today is the last day for making ticket applications for the 2012 games for EU members. I'm not the biggest fan of the Olympics, but I can't say that I'll ever be living in the same city as the Olympics again.
What is everyone applying for?
Me: Mens 100m Finals Mens Basketball Semis Womens Beach Volleyball semis Rowing
Are there any other events that would be good to see?
I've got to say the Olympics have lost a lot of its luster for me. It was really cool when I was really into nationalism, though. If I were to go see something I'd say it would have to be basketball.
In addition to some of the above, I'm also applying for Men's Bball Finals, Boxing Finals, and Football Quarters and Finals
you mean soccer, they don't play football in the olympics
No, I mean association rules football. They don't play american football anywhere last I checked
They used to play it in America...before the impending lockout.
Regards
I hear Canada and Europe have leagues... wonder what that sports package will cost
I was at the 2008 beijing games and had a blast at some of the "lesser" events in addition to the usual suspects (men's basketball, track and field, etc.). I would highly suggest checking out swimming and gymnastics, the atmosphere was INCREDIBLE. I would argue that these events garner more attention/scrutiny than basketball/soccer in the Olympics in very much the same way as the US catching World Cup fever this last summer (ie: not exciting enough to be viewed consistently every year but awesome every four years). Also if you happen to get your hands on some tickets, I'd also recommend field hockey and ping pong-- both are super legit in person.
My two cents.
