Many venues switched to other vendors after the cyber breach last year, even if their contract with Ticketfly wasn't up.
I also heard ticketfly also paid $$$ to some venues so they won't leave them….I wonder which :)

Hopefully Anthem follows. Prefer to be able to choose my seats from a map.

I also like that feature but its not a deal-breaker for me. I did notice that during the Bryan Ferry sale, the Anthem's official seating chart with seat numbers does not reflect what was available in the sale (i.e. CENTER FRONT FLOOR TICKETS, Row ___, seats 141 and 142 when the map shows CENTER FRONT FLOOR seats going from 100-124). Problematic.

You can't choose your seat for every TM event.

Like where are these seats:

on this official seating chart?

And others I pulled were in the 140s. I like to know where my seats are before hitting Confirm Purchase.

All I know is the floor seating varies depending on seated show…
For example for wrestling there was the ring in middle and seats all around the ring but I don’t think IMP provides a seating chart for every seated show as they could all be different …Not sure if general chart provided would be helpful figuring out seat location for specific shows

I can say that Center front means just that…and row e is fifth row (ie, “aa” is behind z)….but having seats in the 140s seems high unless they changed numbering system which I would support so that left 109 and center front 109 and right 109 don’t get people confused and sitting in wrong place if they try to sit themselves but I don’t know and this is all speculation

The "re-number from left to right across the entire row instead of just section" idea might have some legs.
Here's the other two I bought:

And here's a smattering of best available I could get it to spit out:

Looks like maybe all the way to the left starts at 100 and center starts around 118 and runs to around 140ish where right starts and runs to around 158?
That's fine, but a new seating chart would probably be in order if this is how they're going to do it now.

Yup new seating chart needed if there has been a change.
I can say this would be a new change…
