I think we’re mixing “unprecedented” with “unpredictable.” This may be unprecedented, but the data leading into it was screaming loudly An AI model trained on historical sales velocity, search interest, social engagement, and market depth could have flagged this as a potential “black swan” event The challenge wasn’t forecasting it. The challenge was believing the forecast.
We had multiple sales of “Get In” seats for over $6k each last night and this AM for NBA Finals game 3 and 4 @TheGarden. I have never seen anything like this in an arena in 20 years of doing this. It’s more than just @nyknicks fandom. This is a FOMO cultural must be seen event and there’s no algorithm, 🎟️ pricing chart or software program that can ever predict or forecast an event like this. @spurs @nyknicks

And to answer the question …. To the best of my knowledge… the Cubs were the first to offer merch branded and sold exclusively in a premium space
Growing trend in Premium Seating - merch specific to a high end club Really like the @astros going with @hbgolfusa and @petermillar for The Diamond club Any guesses for which pro team was the first to launch merch tied to a suite/club area???

With NBA finals in unmatched demand it’s fun seeing the text messages come in where the last correspondence was a previous request for ticket assistance 😀🤔 Always happy to point folks in the right direction - but no miracles can be worked with this one

The most impressive thing about ChatGPT is its commitment to keeping users engaged by periodically being wrong.

Great read - thanks for sharing @goatcollect Only change I’d make is to suggest that Jordan gamer is worth closer to $30m today than it is $10m… because we won’t ever see a 1998 finals MJ jersey again near that number
I’ve been long collectibles my whole life but maybe never more so than right now. It’s why over the past 10 years I’ve gone from being the sports guys to the collectibles guy at @CourtsideVC medium.com/@vasukulkarni/the…

2024: “This project will take me around 25 minutes” (Reality: the project takes me 25 minutes) 2025: “This project will take me around 25 minutes. But ChatGPT may cut that in half. But then I may spend time double checking AI’s work and ensuring it’s in my voice (Reality: the project takes me 25 minutes) 2026: the project takes me 10 minutes as I’ll finally get the hang of AI by then (hopefully)

Suggestion for @united Since most folks don’t actually listen to the “please let the people with connections off first” request when a flight is late Why not give them an orange wristband or some physical indicator so it’s more clear who they are I have no problem waiting. Just would be nice to know who I’m waiting for

A new autograph journey has begun for @PRyanTexas! Shortly after completing his previous chase for team-sport GOATs featuring signatures from Babe Ruth, Michael Jordan, Lionel Messi, Wayne Gretzky, and Tom Brady — he’s now on the hunt for the following: - Non-team-sport legends - Athletes he’s personally witnessed in his lifetime What started with a signed Michael Jordan book has grown to include Gretzky, Messi, and now Barry Bonds after a recent meeting. Who else HAS to sign this page?!

Love @CalRipkenJr and all associated memorabilia from “the streak” What’s crazy to me in this photo is the lack of hats and jerseys… sports marketing and merchandizing was so different 30 years ago

Enjoyed the episode, but wanted to counter the argument that Arch Manning is the most hyped prospect ever. I believe that actually belongs to a different UT QB... Chris Simms This was pre social media and before blogs and message boards really took off. So its hard to really measure. It was also before Peyton and Brady, so there wasn't a ceiling for comparisons. The Simms hype was legit off the charts. Just hard to find and review those charts since it was 1999. My freshman year as well

I like the marketing twist on this ad… it’s not asking if you want to buy tickets but if the event makes your curious to learn more And quite frankly based on the randomness of the artist theme , that’s the right way to approach

This is a very thoughtful collaboration With the growth of non sports brands doing limited release merch/souvenirs with teams & leagues it’s awesome to see one with a meaningful philanthropic component

🏆 GRAIL COMPLETED 🏆 We’ve enjoyed following the progress @PRyanTexas has made in his team sports GOAT autograph journey. In just under a year, he has COMPLETED the quest after Michael Jordan recently signed the paper, joining Babe Ruth, Wayne Gretzky, Tom Brady, and Leo Messi. This could very well be one of the most significant collection of autographs in existence. Congrats to all involved! 🎥: @CardVaultTB
✍️ MESSI AUTO ADDED ✍️ @PRyanTexas’ GOAT autograph journey is nearly complete after adding Lionel Messi! Only one legend remains…Michael Jordan. What an incredible piece!
