I see a lot of empty seats at Beijing 2008.
Interesting.
A country of over 1 billion people, and they can't fill seats.
Guess it's not just the little countries like Greece which have that problem..

??? All seats are taken, except for the football matches outside of Beijing.

Quite a few seats were empty in one of the basketball games I briefly saw earlier in the day before I went out.
I'm just commenting on things which were blown out of proportion during Athens 2004 by some sections of the media, which are now not such a big deal for them in Beijing 2008.

I heard a bloke claim that the security is so tight in China that, they refuse to sell tickets to anyone. He apparently heard it on ABC. greekturkish/laugh.gif I believe it.

Anything else you wanna get of your chest regarding the Athens 04 reports...?
First was terrorism, now empty seats... What is the traffic in Beijing like, is western media reporting on that...? Fucken hypocrites.

Hmm, no empty seats?
Was just on tonights news that BOCOG is going to "bus in" people to fill empty seats in stadiums.
