A few pointers:

1. One of my friends cancelled his plans so I have spare tickets for majority of the events here. Let me know if any of you are interested in any of the events, would be giving them out at their face value 

2. I might not be interested to watch a few of the events I have bought tickets for if Indian athletes do not reach the medal matches and would be willing to trade tickets for events where I might catch interest during the games. We can use this forum to exchange tickets according to our interests 

3. We all could in general hang out and meet regularly during the period of the games!

According to this, the sports with more tickets sold are (in order): Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Athletics and Handball.

 

This Thursday, Rio will make available the last batch of tickets for brazilians fans with 100k new tickets across all sports. Hope to get something good

Yes, I heard some people from outside of Brazil managed to buy tickets in the official ticketing page. Anyway, if you're looking to buy tickets, the new batch will be available in a hour or so.

Updating my schedule with:

 

Aug 7th	11:00 - 20:00	Tennis (TE007)	Men's and Women's Singles, Doubles First Round
Aug 13th	14:15 - 16:00	Basketball (BK037)	Men's Preliminary Round ARGENTINA X BRAZIL
Aug 19th	20:10 - 22:45	Athletics (AT014)	Men's and Women's Prelims, Finals

 

The Athletics ticket is the most expensive I bought for this Olympics, but it should be a great night with Women's Pole Vault and 4x100 Relays finals.

Three days to "start" Olympics, i'm anxious to be on Estádio Nilton Santos to see the very first event of Olympics, Women's Football with Sweden vs South Africa and later Brazil and China. I'll be at some great events, like Athletics (Women's Pole Vault and 4x100 relays finals), Women's Handball final and in some sports which i never seen live before, like Badminton, Weightlifting and Slalom Canoeing  

 

And i expect we can do a Totallympics Meeting on the Olympic Park or in the Olympic Boulevard
