Rainy foggy mess at the snowboard venue.The Vancouver Olympic Commission today canceled snowboarding venue tickets for 20,000 people who had purchased standing room only access. Due to the heavy rains, the area designated for the holders has become "a dangerous mud pit."

With Vancouver experiencing the mildest winter in over 100 years the timing couldn't be worse. As reported, "VANOC decided to cancel tickets for the area for safety reasons after staff began sinking through up to their knees in the spaces between the bales," said Caley Denton, VANOC's vice-president of ticketing.


This thing is really turning into a junkshow.
