The Olympic Swim Trials in Omaha are always a great treat, and these did not disappoint. Well-run and well-staffed for scanning tickets.
The electricity of Olympic expectations permeated the entire arena. It was wonderful to experience the achievements of athletes who have worked so hard to represent their country. I do wish that heat sheets had been provided each evening. A program would have been especially nice. I also miss physical tickets. They made such terrific souvenirs!
My son was swimming in the trials. I spent a great deal of time figuring out my seat selection so my husband and I could see him swim. When I arrived, I was told all of our tickets (4) had to be changed. Instead of being in the first row of the balcony in the middle of the pool, we were moved to the turn end on the 1st level behind lane 9. We couldn't see the start and had to watch the score board instead of the race. Additionally, there were cardboard cut-outs that had WAY better seats than us. So wrong. My son's girl friend came, we were promised she'd be given a new ticket so she could sit with us as planned; she had to sit alone. This change of seating was unfair and lacked an understanding of the importance of the event to swim families. If people were moved, the cardboard cutouts should have been moved to give people a decent view. Our son swam for more than 10 years, most of his childhood, this was the biggest meet of his life and we were stuck in the worst seats in the house. Really disappointing; compensation is requested.
