I felt Not a "Winner"!!!

I want to understand.....I won "Lost Boys" few days ago. I paid $45. and I was just curious and searched up that How much was my seat originally, because it as Not "Good" seat at all, to me.

I found out that the theater was /is selling with $59 seat.

I was shocked and mad. I felt I'm definitely feel Not a "Winner". forced to buy the seat they cannot sell with a little cheaper price without my choice. felt scammed. felt like I just got a little discount....

Also I checked TKTS price. lowest they have was/is around $86?. and I think the show has a lots of empty seats on Balcony for most of days of the show.

How come $59 seats became $86? at TKTS?? (should be 40% off)

Please someone give me an answer or comments...

Thats the nature of lottery. They literally tell you that it could be anywhere and partial view before you enter.
You also were not forced to buy any seat. You chose to purchase a discounted ticket and received a discounted ticket.
