EUGENE, Ore. - If you don't have a ticket to get in to the games -- or even if you do -- the Eugene 08 festival is the place to be.

This is the first time a festival of this size has been put on for an Olympic trials and there's a lot to do.

Everything is free except for the food and drink, and there are even some freebies available in that department if you know where to look.

Some of the highlights include track and field games for kids, Wii video games and chair massages.

Of course, there's also performers on the festival main stage and two jumbo screens broadcasting the action.
