Olympic Tickets
When I first moved to China, I promised myself that I would go to the 2008 Olympics. I have a lot of friends and family in Beijing and it seems about right that I go for the festivities. Not only will there be awesome events, it’s a great way to celebrate China’s growth and revival.
A few months back, I applied for tickets online. A couple of days ago, i received confirmation of the tickets that they’re going to give me. Out of the 10 different events I wanted to go to, I didn’t get anything in ping pong, basketball, badminton or swimming. Those tickets were already lottery-ed off. I going to see fencing, beach volleyball and a event in the National Stadium, though.
There has been rumors that not a lot of foreigners are going to come to the 2008 Olympics. I dont believe this. I bet there are going to be a ton of travelers coming for it, and if they don’t come, Chinese people will just have to take all the seats.
