I'd really like to see the equestrian events. Don't really care about any of the others, that I can think of.

Diving and track and field, but I'd much prefer the winter games.

Having experienced the 2002 winter games......ANYTHING.....just the Olympic experience is incredible.

I was fortunate enough to take my family to the closing ceremonies and it's something we will never, ever forget.

I was at the 96 games and had tickets to the SLC Winter Games, but had to sell them!

I went to Equestrian Events, Baseball, Closing Ceremonies and I think that was all.

Pick what you really want to see first! Then fill in...the Opening and Closing are really expensive, we got ours off a broker hours before the ceremony, which was HOURS long, we were in peanut heaven and loved every minute of it!

Just do it, go, you will love it!

Nevermind the 2012 Summer games. How about the 2010 Winter games in Vancouver Canada? Connie and I are hell bent on attending since they are almost in our back yard. :D :D

I'd go to see sports you don't see everyday. Like the archery, shooting, water polo, handball, diving, etc.

Although I would definitely like to see the women's gymnastics, and maybe the swimming.
