Guest guest Posted September 6, 2000 Report Share Posted September 6, 2000 Carol, that was truly hilarious! I don't remember seeing anything similar 4 years ago when we were in the throes of Olympics anticipation here in Atlanta. There was one wonderful incident though. A man from New Mexico called in to the official tickets line in Atlanta. He was told by the young woman who answered that he would have to contact his own country authorities to buy tickets, that only Americans could buy tickets through this call-in line. After insisting that New Mexico is, in fact, part of the United States and getting nowhere with the tickets lady, who knew the RULES, he finally asked to speak to the supervisor. This lady supported her employee and reiterated that the man would have to contact the Mexican government. Poor man gave up on that one, but sure got a lot of publicity. Hmmmm, how come the Aussies can manage to make the rest of the world look like doofus's, while in Atlanta we just made ourselves look like doofus's? Jane, still in GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
