VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Better double check those tickets. Turns out the times for some Olympic events have changed.

Olympic organizers put a total of 1.6 million tickets on sale with the largest batch going up for grabs right away back in 2008.  The Vancouver Sun compared the events schedule that had been circulated at the time with the most recent version available on VANOC's website. The paper found at least one event that is starting earlier or later on every day of the Games, expect for on the opening and closing days.

That could be trouble for folks who had planned to catch more than one event a day, they may find themselves doubled-booked. To check the latest information, head to VANOC's website.

News1130 is the official radio station of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games -- and the only local radio station carrying the Opening Ceremonies live.
