I guess we'll see, seems like you'd have to have your hotel/condo ready and about 1000 bucks to spend for the time you're there. I don't think i'll have either of those.

Too much money for me.  I would love to go but Id rather spend money and goto xgames and the usopen or just a sick ski trip for myself.

The olympics is fucking lame. The only event i'd want to go and watch is hockey.

I live in Whistler. i'll be there. Olympics suck though. instead of putting in proper transport (TRAIN!!) they built a bigger highway for buses. way to go pollution. total lack of foresight in planning for the region.

i'm looking at volunteering but volunteering really costs money: you've got two dedicate TWO WEEKS to the Games. seriously. who can stop working two weeks while living in whistler to volunteer? you've got to be kidding me.
