If you're looking to buy tickets to a sporting or music event, you'll want to pay a visit to SeatGeek to find the best value for your money.
At SeatGeek you can search for your favorite team, performing artist, or even by venue or city if you're open to taking in anything. SeatGeek renders a map of the venue, charts out where the seats are located, and dishes the dirt on the overall state of pricing at the venue as well as individual tickets. The price forecast tells you if you should buy now or wait based on prior data for the team/artist and the venue in question. In our example above—purchasing Houston Rockets tickets—SeatGeek suggested that we buy now because it projected a moderate price increase between now and the event.
In addition to simply searching for events and comparing immediate prices, SeatGeek publishes TicketPulse. TicketPulse massages the data across the board at SeatGeek and highlights interesting facts based on ticket prices, number of tickets purchased, and other factors. For example if you consider part of the value of a ticket to be seeing the team win, the New Orleans Hornets provide the best value—the win average compared to their average ticket price makes for the cheapest "they're gonna win!" ticket purchase in the NBA.(link above)
