i am literally living in the Olympics. Creekside is a full-on police state now. Nothing but metal fences, huge, HUGE amount of police everywhere, military, hell there are two security check points on the turn off to my home, in a space of less than two blocks.
check out the surveillance blimp lol:
anyway, the torch arrived here a couple of days ago, i got some pics (this is through Creekside):
about a block from where i live:
military helicopters are flying overhead all day and all night. but to answer the question, my girl works for Intrawest, so she got us great deals on some events. we have 5 tickets to the men's luge, another 5 for the women's downhill, and tix for 2 for two of the 'victory celebrations', one of them has Devo playing to a group of a couple hundred people lol. that should be good. i can't wait for it to be over, and yes, it's a crazy amount of money to spend. 1 billion on security, insane. at least we got a new highway out of it.
