Last Chance at 2010 Olympic Tickets
Phase 3, the third and final phase of Vanoc's Olympic tickets plan goes into effect this Saturday, November 7, which means that if you want Olympic tickets, get ready to get them!
Vanoc, the official organizers of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, have set aside over 100,000 tickets--including tickets to gold medal hockey, curling, opening and closing ceremonies--for sale in this final ticket phase.
Tickets will be sold online at the Vanoc site beginning at 10am on Saturday, November 7, on a first-come, first-serve basis. Only Canadian residents are eligible for these final-phase tickets. High-profile Paralympic tickets will also be on sale.
To get ready, make sure you register for a ticketing account or, if you've purchased tickets before, make sure your account information is up-to-date. (If the ticketing site is closed in preparation for Phase 3, check back regularly to see if you can register for an account in advance.)

What a frigging joke. 10:15 and still cannot get on the site…
so much for phase 3……
hopefully they’ll start phase 4 with a system that stays up.
Apparently there was a problem between the “virtual waiting room” and the “ticketing transition site”. So: Phase 3 has been postponed until November 14.
I’m going to update the blog, and I hope you both have better luck on November 14. (If you can stand trying again!)
