Yes, I saw the same thing you did @clemsonbeav (on both accounts) but I agree it looks pretty stock.

I am very curious. We got extremely lucky in the first ticket drop, both my and my wife's emails were selected for relatively early time slots-- early enough that we bought our full allotment of tickets for good stuff. Not swimming or gymnastics of course, but we were really pleased, d But today I received an email on one of those accounts saying that we were entered into the second drop because we hadn't used up our 12 ticket allotment. I went back and counted-- twice-- and yes, we certainly did purchase 12 tickets on that account. I am not sure I want any more! Did this happen to anybody else?

2028 cricket grounds construction begins, remarkably on schedule: https://www.olympics.com/en/news/la-2028-olympics-cricket-stadium-construction-pomona-start

Second ticket drop coming in August with some new inventory. It's pretty clear they underestimated demand in first round: https://la28.org/en/newsroom/la28-sets-new-benchmark-with-more-than-4-million-tickets-sold.html

And so it begins. A pair of Men's tennis finals tickets on StubHub for $11K. You would have to be some kind of idiot to purchase these, but there are undoubtedly people who are that foolish.

That all looks great, glad to see you made it through. There are going to be many other ways to get tickets over the next two years. I think the big problem with getting Climbing tickets (which I would also like to see) is that it is going to be one of the smaller venues. They are going to cram that and the water polo pool into the LB Arena parking lot, which yes, is pretty big but still.

This ^. There will be other chances.

Congrats on getting the windows. Have fun shopping. I will be interested to see what kind of choices you have.

Good luck tomorrow (or in the days ahead). It will be very interesting to see how many new tickets will be released. There HAS to be additional seats available. As for the secondary market, it's a great question but i don't see why they would restrict somebody at that point. By the way, although people around here did get the "sorry, you're out" emails, they all came the first day. Everybody who signed up, and did not get that bad email the first day, eventually got in.

So, all in all we did ok, given the constraints of both budget and access. We definitely got lucky in some cases. Eleven sessions, including four medal sessions. I don't know that we will keep all of them, or maybe get even more, once the secondary market opens, but we sure have a lot to look forward to.

We got the cheapest available fencing final tickets and those were $376. The athletics morning session was $220, and I am pretty sure we got the cheapest available. Mind you, there were other ticket prices below these but they are always the first to go.

My wife's email came through, and we had a second window today. We bought 2 tix each for equestrian (dressage final), fencing (final), rugby (womens prelim). archery (mixed team prelim), athletics (morning prelim), and badminton (prelim). Now we just need a bank loan to feed ourselves in the meantime. I am sort of glad we had a limit.

Absolutely. The person that we are pooling tickets with still hasn't heard anything about being in or out of the drops, so we are hopeful that we will have access to another drop and have some luck with the sports that we didn't get. But you definitely have to move fast. Though we are quite happy with the tickets we got, I would hate to admit how much we paid to get some of them. The only opening ceremony tickets that were left by the time we got there (literally 2 minutes after the window opened) were $2600. I love the Olympics but that was a little much.

For each event, there are two ways of answering the ticket price question. There is the overall range of prices, and the tickets that are available now. When your window opens, there may be more availability than what I am seeing now. But availability also diminshed rapidly as I was making my purchases. But FWIW, here are the overall ranges, bearing in mind that the bottom tiers are all sold out, at least for the time being.

Well it's a dog-eat-dog world out there. We got 2 tix for women's volleyball final, 2 for preliminary round of mens platform diving, and 4 for a beach volleyball preliminary session, 4 for mens basketball prelim doubleheader and two for a prelim women's football match. Opening ceremonies were sold out, as were gymnastics finals, and a lot more with only the very very expensive tix remaining. Lots of bugs and glitches too. Took three tries to get it right. @clemsonbeav I will get to your pricing questions shortly.
