One of the most exciting things about the Olympic Games is getting to see them, whether it be in person or watching from your sofa.
In order to see the games in person, you had better get your tickets soon at the Olympic Website. Prices range from a shocking $1,100 for front row seats at the Opening Ceremonies to only $22 for nightly Vancouver victory ceremony. Of course, the price of the tickets varies. The closer to the front you are and the more popular the event, the higher the ticket price. For example, A seats for either the Men's or Women's Free programs in figure skating are an incredible $42, whereas A seats for Luge are a more reasonable $70. In the entirety of the events, there are over 100,000tickets. There is also a timeline to follow to get your tickets. .
In case you can't get to Canada to see the top athletes compete, the games will be televised throughout the events. While times and channels may vary by location, the main schedule of events is online and now on this blog at this link: schedule. Check your local viewing guides to get the most up-to-date times and channels. Most sports channels and most likely NBC will televise the games.
Until next time,
your best friend.
