Fans get stuck at the ticket fences LONDON: Olympic organisers face a growing backslash from hundreds of thousands of sports fans who woke up on Wednesday to find they were ticketless, despite some bidding thousands of pounds for tickets. Even Boris Johnson, the mayor of London, failed to secure any tickets from his personal application, but said it proves that the process was fair. "I am proud to be British nation where the mayor of the host city goes into a ballot for tickets for his family and gets rejected", he said,. But others were crying foul. The controversial ballot, held after 20 million people applied for the six million tickets, was criticised for effectively favouring wealthier buyers who could afford to make multiple bids.

Fans get stuck at the ticket fences LONDON: Olympic organisers face a growing backslash from hundreds of thousands of sports fans who woke up on Wednesday to find they were ticketless, despite some bidding thousands of pounds for tickets. Even Boris Johnson, the mayor of London, failed to secure any tickets from his personal application, but said it proves that the process was fair. "I am proud to be British nation where the mayor of the host city goes into a ballot for tickets for his family and gets rejected", he said,. But others were crying foul. The controversial ballot, held after 20 million people applied for the six million tickets, was criticised for effectively favouring wealthier buyers who could afford to make multiple bids.
