Um, front row at the Back Room at the Hard Rock. If I'm nice to the bartender, she'll switch the 60' HDTV from athletics to basketball.

I passed on the $480 ticket price initially. When I looked a couple of months later, they were gone. I looked some in London, but the authorities are discouraging any form of resales. I'm content with having seen the Aussie semifinals.

The marathon is tomorrow--and it's free. The U.S. has some legit medal contenders.

Does that mean the women are playing at 9 pm local time?
(I mean their local time, not ours.)

Milford, any idea what the men's game is going for? Just curious. I'm not going obviously.

As I noted, not much is available on the street. The men sold out in late 2011, I believe. Street price, if available, $800+ for nose bleed. Prime seats for $3,000+. That's my guess. This is the premier matchup.
