I'm struggling to come up with a good basis for a lawsuit. CFAA abuse is the first thing that comes to mind, but this is a real stretch for that, and SCOTUS shut that stretching down a while ago. DMCA doesn't come into play, since this isn't circumventing any copyright protection schemes. So this kind of leaves you with some form of contract violation, but even that seems like a stretch here. Tortious interference or interference with prospective business? I mean, I don't see any events complaining about this (hell, Ticketmaster itself arguably has some contract liability issues with the fact that their technology relies on cell service which tends to be spotty in dense crowds). So you're kind of left with some individual contract liability issue, which is literally not worth the cost of litigation.
