Wow, this is quite clever, particularly the ASCII art stadium maps. Color me impressed.

Thank you! Would be happy to post more details about how it works if that post isn't clear enough. The source should be readable enough, but it's a bit messy (I'll blame it on the hackathon time constraint).

Seatgeek is seriously amazing. More people should be using it IMO.

On a related note, seatgeek's main site seems to be having problems getting ticket prices currently

Maybe that's b/c 80% of all websites on Earth are having problems right now?

(Exaggerating, but you get the point...)

Sorry about that, we had an explosion of traffic following the release of our SG-CLI, and it appears our auto-scaling code affected an availability zone because of a higher-than-normal write load...
