Olympic Race for Oprah Tickets

By Tim State in News on Aug 30, 2008 5:26PM

Oprah Fans, get to Millennium Park now if you want a chance for a ticket to Oprah’s 23rd season premiere staring 150 U.S. Olympic athletes. The show will tape next Wednesday.

Tickets are normally only available by phone, and are hugely impossible to get. So if you want to see Oprah “welcome home” the U.S. athletes, or see Michael Phelps up close and in person, get to Millennium Park now. Certainly, Oprah will be giving her spin on Chicago's 2016 bid as well.

The opening show will air on September 8. [Trib]
