What’s the most desired ticket in the world? Courtside at the NBA Finals? The Super Bowl in New York City? The World Cup final in Rio? Â How about none of the above?
The BBC reports that one million people applied to see an event that has nothing to do with Tom Brady or LeBron James or Lionel Messi. Â And the event will last less than 10 seconds.
We’re talking about the men’s 100-meter final in London next August. The sprint is always the marquee event of the Summer Olympics, but this is likely the most anticipated Olympic event ever, because of one man.
Every sports fan in the world, let alone the million who applied for a seat at the Olympic Stadium next year, wants to watch Usain Bolt try to beat his unfathomable world record Olympic time of 9.69 seconds, set at the 2008 Games in Beijing.
