Why are there so many empty seats at Olympic events?
In October 2007, Beijing Olympic organizers said all 6.8 million tickets to events were sold out for the first time in 112 years of Summer Games (from Businessweek.com). I know that most of the tickets were sold domestically (in China), so why are we seeing so many empty seats at the events? And why are so many people trying desperately to buy tickets on the street without any luck?
Fan frustration grows over ticket issues - Half-empty venues and sky-high prices are souring Olympic faithful
