b"Understanding the rights of a ticket holder is part of what Fan Freedom has been doing since 2011. It comes down to a question of asking 'who owns the ticket' and whether enough is being done on the behalf of ticket buyers to protect their ability to resale if they want. Fan Freedom's Chris Grimm discusses these issues on both a macro and micro level, especially when it comes to the ability for resale. Grimm sets the stage with several scenarios facing fans today, as well as how the secondary market has pushed down the price of tickets as more brokers create a competitive marketplace offering. Grimm also shares his opinions on consolidation deals, believing that they are price-fixing fans out of finding the lowest possible price for a ticket. Twitter: @FanFreedom"
