They also decided that they only want (mostly) Canadian fans at the events... We bought tickets for 2 events: one off the "Fan-to-Fan" official tout web site when there were tickets available by phone but NOT on the web. (I only found out cos I had to call about a problem I had buying the rip-off tickets). 2nd event we bought off a tout recommended by our hotel.
In addition, the lack of information available in Vancouver was shocking. It's a joke, things pished me off so much so we found ourselves cheering for the Yanks on Sunday in a bar/restaurant full of Canucks. When that 5th goal went in it was sweet and the place emptied!
