One advantage of being in Australia!
 
I was able to secure Mens 100m Final tickets through the Australian allocation! Later on I heard the frustration from my friends waking up a 6am to find their olympic site down...poor kids.

Nailed 5 other athletic sessions, a few basketball football matches.

Friends of mine have managed to get tickets for the same event. They're in the UK. They have a half hour train journey to get there. Where's the advantage?
