Last-chance sale postponed

Olympics: Anyone hoping to grab some of the last remaining tickets for the 2010 Winter Games will have to wait until Saturday.

Technical problems hit the ticket Web site and prevented the sale of any of the 100,000 tickets that were to be available at 10 a.m. PST Saturday, said Renee Smith-Valade, vice president of communications for the Vancouver Olympic organizing committee.

Ticket buyers trying to log onto the Web site only got a Google message saying the link appeared to be broken. Associated Press
