Gentlemen (and ladies), start your engines!

The “Super Bowl of Racing,” the Daytona 500, runs tomorrow and kicks off the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup racing season.

Fortunately Team FanSnap has been hard at work, searching the internet for tickets for the entire season and country, from Sonoma to Watkins Glen:

Have a great racing season!

Seems like the entire world is abuzz about Jeremy Lin and the resurgent New York Knicks as they have reeled off seven straight wins.  Ticket to Madison Square Garden have become incredibly hot as demand has spiked and season ticket holders have become much less likely to sell.

Check out the impact of Linsanity on the market prices of this weeks’ upcoming Knicks home games.  Jeremy’s breakout game was Feb 4 when an injured Carmello Anthony told Coach Mike D’Antoni to put in the kid at the end of the bench since nothing else was working for the struggling Knicks.  Look at the effect on ticket prices fan demand has had since then!

The great news is you can still, albeit at the higher prices, find Knicks tickets to see Jeremy play live here.

NBA All Star Game

The even better news is that Jeremy has been invited to play in the NBA All Star Rising Stars Challenge.  You can find tickets to this game, the NBA All Star Game, and all the NBA All Star Weekend events here:

At midnight last night, the tooth fairy left a present for music fans everywhere!  Madonna announced her first tour dates in support of her new album “MDNA.”  Fresh off her 2012 Super Bowl halftime performance for 114 million worldwide viewers, fans will now have a chance to see the Material Girl perform live!

Team FanSnap is on the case, and we will monitor the internet and let you know as soon as tickets become available!

Still coming down from your Super Bowl high?  Don’t relax yet.

There are four amazing NCAA basketball games coming up this week.  Hopefully you can catch them on TV, or even better if you are in the neighborhood, see them live, in a prelude to next month’s conference championship and NCAA tournaments!

#7 Florida Gators @ #1 Kentucky Wildcats

#11 Georgetown Hoyas @ #2 Syracuse Orange

#10 Kansas Jayhawks @ #6 Baylor Bears

#9 Duke Blue Devils @ #5 North Carolina Tar Heels

Tiger Woods is coming to the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am this week, for the first time since 2002.

Usually when great news hits an event, market prices for the tickets are bid up.  However, we noticed something different with this year’s Pebble Beach PGA event – many ticket owners who would otherwise, are not selling their tickets.  They want to see Tiger.

The good news is we did find an amazingly low number of ticket listings remaining on six ticket sites.  If you want to go, you better lock them up soon…

Tues  AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am – Practice Round

Wed  AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am – Practice Round

Thu  AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

Only 170 tickets starting at $70, averaging $100

Fri  AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

Only 155 tickets starting at $80, averaging $105

Sat  AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

Only 170 tickets starting at $80, averaging $103

Sun  AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

Only 265 tickets starting at $80, averaging $108

Grip ‘em and rip ‘em!

p.s. If you are really in the mood to party, we found a fairway chalet for Sunday being offered on PrimeSport for $440!

Fresh Beat what?

Unless you have a rug rat in the house who consumes Nickelodeon Junior you may never have heard of the Fresh Beat Band.  Well get ready. Because they are hitting the road for a four-month national tour.

The Fresh Beat Band, also called the Fresh Beats, are Shout, Twist, Marina, and Kiki, four best friends in music school together who have a band.  It’s kind of Scooby Doo meets Glee.  In every TV episode, the band works together to solve a problem and then at the end sings a song about the problem and their solution.  OK, maybe it’s Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys meets Partridge Family.

Shout plays keyboards.  Twist is a DJ. Marina is the drummer, and Kiki plays guitar and violin.  You can find their hit singles Great Day, Here We Go, and A Friend Like You on iTunes. There are games and videos.  An album, The Fresh Beat Band: Music From the Hit TV Show is being released this week.

Anyway, kids absolutely love the show which means their mommies love the show, so look for quick sellouts and a very active ticket market which you can monitor with FanSnap.  Check back often as ticket supply will grow and asking prices should vary widely.  Mommies who got Fresh Beats tickets from the box office have won the lottery, and they are ecstatic at how happy their rug rat is going to be, so expect them to ask a lot if you want them to part with those tickets.

Remember you heard it here first.  Fresh Beat Band tickets are going to be the hottest tickets in America.

NFL fans looking for tickets to see the New England Patriots and New York Giants play in the Super Bowl have been watching market prices closely all week since the match up was determined.  The ticket is hot, pricier than either of the last two years.  Availability is not a problem… FanSnap has found 11,000 ticket listings available from a record 23 different ticket sites.  The question is to buy now or wait?

Often prices decline as an event nears, although ticket selection gets picked over as tickets are sold or ticket sellers change their mind and pull their tickets off the market.  That’s the calculus a buyer is doing as they decide what tickets are right for them… and at what price.

It’s not always straightforward.  At last year’s Packers vs Steelers Super Bowl in Jerry Jones’ snow-bound temple, sellers flooded the market early but then supply dropped tremendously and as a result, asking prices rebounded higher.

The prior year, the Colts vs Saints Super Bowl was characterized by rising supply and prices dropped the entire two weeks.

What will happen this year?  The only thing for sure is that getting flights and hotels is the hard part.  Perhaps regional NFL fans will just make the day trip and tip the balance.  Stay tuned!

Just two games remaining until the Super Bowl!  The AFC and NFC Championships are next Sunday, Jan 22.

Those of you who thought the Packers would repeat, or that the Saints were the hottest team in the NFL?  You were wrong.

Who will win?  Whatever the outcome, you can go to these games to cheer on your team, and even find Super Bowl XLVI tickets as FanSnap has found thousands on the best ticket sites across the web!

AFC Championship: Baltimore Ravens @ New England Patriots

NFC Championship: NY Giants @ San Francisco 49ers

Led by some great defenses and solid QB play, the Ravens, Patriots, Giants, and surprising 49ers are just one game away from playing for the Lombardi Trophy.  Can Tom Brady add to his legacy?  Can Eli Manning pick up a second ring?  Can Ray Lewis lead the decade’s most dominant defense to the promised land again?  Maybe we will even see a Harbaugh brothers title game?

Don’t miss kick off!

The NHL’s annual outdoors Winter Classic  has proven to be a huge success and 2012 will be no different with the New York Rangers visiting the Philadelphia Flyers on January 2 at Citizens Bank Park!

There are a huge choice of tickets available on the ticket market. The good news is that market prices have been steadily dropping and are currently averaging $531 per ticket.  Shop carefully using our interactive FanSnap Maps, as at any given point in time we regularly see asking prices vary by as much as 10-50% even for tickets in the same section.  Also, remember to check back often as sellers can change asking prices, and post or take down tickets at any time.

Happy Holidays!

While the game and rematch of the SEC titans for the National title is heavily anticipated (by everyone except Oklahoma residents), market prices for the Allstate BCS National Championship Game : LSU vs Alabama have been dropping since their peak around Thanksgiving, and are currently averaging $2,175 per ticket.  There are still more than 5,000 tickets available on the open ticket market as FanSnap is finding tickets from at least 12 different ticket providers, starting at just under $1000 per ticket.

We have found tickets available on StubHub, TicketsNow, Razorgator, TicketNetwork, Ticket Solutions, AAATix.com, ASC Ticket Company, Golden Tickets, PrimeSport, Circle City Tickets, Great Seats, and Gold Coast Tickets.  Check back often and shop carefully using our interactive FanSnap Maps, as at any given point in time we regularly see asking prices vary by as much as 10-50% even for tickets in the same section.

We expect to see lots of buying and selling in the days before the big game as while this is basically a home game for LSU, it is an easy drive for Bama and other football fans across the south.  Plus lets face it, there are a lot worse places to spend January than the French Quarter!

Happy holidays!
