Anyone else get tickets? Croppy was most pleased to see his card charged for around €440 (for two people) and a lovely e-mail telling him he’d find out what events he’s going to on June 25.
Fingers crossed to be at pool when Wexford’s finest brings home Gold.
The Olympics don’t do it for me but lapsed forum member Juhniallio attended the Men’s 100m Final in Beijing and said the buzz before, during and after was electric. Wouldn’t fancy paying over the odds to go into a lucky dip given the sheer plethora of shite (non) sports that form large parts of the event calendar.
For the athletics you are given the option of applying for sessions - so morning or evening - they list the events taking place during each session so it’s up to you to make your own choice.
You can apply for just one session if you like but you’d be less likely to get any tickets in that case. I applied for tkts up to a value of £1,382.00 and got tickets to the value of £338.00
