You don't take the Selfie until 24 hours before (at most -- you can wait if you think you might sell it). Until then, there's a simple flow to email the ticket to someone else.

I'm imagining a user who's very busy and puts off taking the selfie until the last minute... when they're in line.

Then the show the photo they just took to the bouncer to get in?

I think the reaction from people at these events will be 'this app is dumb' after seeing someone take a photo then show it to the bouncer when the look exactly the same in real life!

I mean, wouldn't you feel silly if you had bought and paid for a ticket to an event then had to take a photo of yourself standing in line in order to get in?

[Edit: my constructive criticism here is what are you going to do about the users who will take the photo at the last second?]
