Understanding market efficiency will aid in comprehending the surge pricing and secondary market dynamics discussed.

Ultimately, the book provides a financial valuation of sporting events, drawing connections between sports management, behavioral economics, and cultural studies. The book progresses by first introducing ticket valuation and its historical development. It subsequently dissects the economic factors, examining supply and demand. Later chapters investigate psychological aspects, such as social status and the fear of missing out. Most Expensive Tickets culminates with an analysis of the future of sports ticketing, considering the impact of evolving consumer preferences.

Forged by Speed - The making of...

Steve Peat

In a little over two and a half minutes on 6 September 2009 Steve Peat cemented his place in mountain biking history, becoming downhill world champion at the seventeenth time of asking and by a winning margin of just five hundredths of a second. But ‘Peaty’s’ road to the coveted rainbow stripes began almost two decades earlier on the woodland trails of Northern England. Born and raised in Sheffield, he narrowly avoided going down the wrong track and instead chose to race cross-country mountain bikes before switching to the rapidly emerging discipline of downhill where he would compete alongside other young British racers including Rob Warner and the late, great, Jason McRoy. Since then, Steve has competed against the greatest riders of all time, including Nicolas Vouilloz, Shaun Palmer and Greg Minnaar, and his name has become synonymous around the world with downhill mountain biking. 
In Forged by Speed, Steve shares his incredible story, from the Steel City to the top step of the world championship podium. Honest, compelling and funny, it is the autobiography of a British sporting legend.
