See The View From The Seats Before You Buy

One of the issues I ran into as a live sports enthusiast was how can I tell if I'm going to like the view from the seats I want to buy. There are a few really good resources.

This site has views from many different venues. I suggest you look  up the arena you are going to and look up a seat in the section and row close to the seat you want to buy for an event. Beware, some people take horrible pictures but you can get a good guess at the view your going to get buy viewing others pictures. Make sure you add your pictures so others can make decisions based on your pictures.

2. Use the teams official website 3D Seat Viewer
The 3d seat viewer gives you a digital view of the sections and rows. It's been my experience that the 3D seat viewer the teams supply makes the seats seam a little closer than they are but it still is a good resource.


Here are a few examples

As you can see the view from the arena without adjusting makes the seat seem much closer but it does give you a nice unobstructed view.

Once again you can see the view from the arena without adjusting makes the seat seem much closer but it does give you a nice unobstructed view.

If you can't find a actual photo near the seat your after I suggest using the 3D Seat Viewer and give it about 4 or 5 minus clicks on the view adjuster to approximate a real world view.

I have nothing to do with  aviewfrommyseat.com/
Although I am a contributor who has had 5 of my photo's featured by the website.

I use this site religiously and I have found many good seats.

Why Being a Charlotte Hornets Season Ticket Holder Might Be a Good Financial Move

First off let me say that when selling your seats you will very rarely get back what you have paid for the seats. The being a good financial move comes in when you discover how much it costs to purchase seats for the nights when the best teams in the league come to town. The above picture is a screen capture from the arenas Ticketmaster site that shows the seats for sale for the 12/31/2016 Hornets vs The Cavaliers game. Blue dots represent being sold by the arena and Red dots represent being sold by a season ticket holder. THERE ARE NO AVAILABLE SEATS IN THE 6 LOWER PREMIUM SEATS SECTIONS that are being sold by the arena. All the seats for sale are being sold by presumably greedy season ticket holders.  My seats are in section 106 row R and the the closest seats for comparison that a season ticket holder is trying to resale are in section 106  row O. That season ticket holder paid $198 for two seats a game and is asking $794 + tax for two seats. Th...
