2010 Olympics

I am currently in possession of the following 2010 Olympic event tickets:

2/21/2010 - Biathlon - Men's 15K mass start, Women's 12.5K mass start

2/23/2010 - Nordic Combined - Team event (Large hill and 4x5k relay)

2/24/2010 - Alpine Skiing - Women's Giant Slalom

All are medal competitions, and I have to say that I'm pretty happy with these tickets (which I had to scramble to pick, since I ordered towards the end of Phase I ticketing).

Now if I can only get some snowboard tickets and some cheap accommodations I'll be good to go.
