No, it should be the same. In a perfect world, the ticketmaster.com site would be hooked into the database for all of ticketmaster and reflect realtime inventory across the whole Ticketmaster organization. But in reality, some businesses just allot a certain number for online and a certain number for in person transactions because their databases aren't hooked together. I'm not sure if Ticketmaster does that with Ticketmaster.com or not, but it's entirely possible. Although I'm not sure how probably, considering Ticketmaster is a pretty big organization, so they'd probably have all the bells and whistles.
I do know that sometimes if Ticketmaster is sold out, you may still be able to get tickets at Yoshi, because Yoshi gets a set number of printed tickets from Ticketmaster beforehand, which are already accounted for in the Ticketmaster database as being sold.
Does that make sense?
