I hate it too, it teases it you, lets you put tickets in the basket and then makes you wait ages, then say's no sorry!!

How amazing was the mens butterfly, Phelps just pipped at the post.

BTW, for anybody else who has access into the park, once inside be sure to check with the box-office for returned tickets. It has been covered earlier in this thread but I received confirmation today from one of my work colleagues that it is indeed possible. He managed to get into several arenas on Saturday for as little as a fiver each. However, he also warned to check the time as you could easily walk into an event which is winding down to a close and nobody can be held liable.
