Tickets remain for Olympic events amid Atlanta rush

In Atlanta crowds line the walk up box office as about 12 000 tickets a day sell with roughly 3 million left. Some buyers pay high prices for track and field and gymnastic practice sessions while others miss out on opening ceremonies. Officials warn future host cities to tighten marketing and sponsorship rules to protect rights. ACOG sold most sponsorships for about 10 million each and IOC worldwide pricing runs around 40 million. By Aug 5 a 4 billion global audience is expected.
