This one is for the sports fans. I’m an avid NY Yankees fan and a big NY Giants fan, but I’ll go to any baseball or football game that’s offered to me; it’s also a personal goal of mine to visit all of the Major League Baseball (MLB) stadiums in my lifetime. It’s always nice to have a resource to help you figure out how good your seats are (I recently ran into this problem when buying tickets to a Broadway show) as I am willing to pay a little extra if it means a better view.

Last year, Frank Panko found a way for sports fans to aggregate all the photos we take from the bleachers and launched A View from My Seat. At the time, he told Technically Philly he could envision his application being useful for making ticket purchases.
Now, about a year later, with the launch of a View From My Seat Chrome extension for StubHub, Panko’s vision is a reality.

Must-Have Sports Apps
Cellular Chloe at Wireless Zone - Cellular Chloe Gadgetista
I may not be the biggest sports fan and this app sounds cool even to me! Last year I was buying tickets to Louden, NH's Nascar race for myself and 5 others. The seats were in turn 4. I've always sat close to the start/finish line there in the past so I wasn't sure if these seats would allow me to see the whole front stretch. To me that's a deal breaker. If I can't see the cars pitting, coming off the 4th turn and going into the first, I'd almost rather watch it on TV.

Thanks to a South Philadelphia man, there’s no need to worry about purchasing a pricey stadium ticket and getting stuck behind a foul pole or glass partition.
At least that’s the vision behind A View From My Seat, a website and Android app that encourages users to upload cell phone shots of, well, the view from their seats in thousands of venues around the world.
