Embodiments of a game system and method employ the outcomes of external real-life events in determining winners. Generally, in various embodiments, the game system selects a group of performers for presenting in a game play area of an issued ticket, determines a performance score for each performer based on each performer's real-life performance in an upcoming event, and compares the performance score with the scores other performers in order to determine whether the ticket has zero, one or more winners. In embodiments, the game system can monitor performer status between the time of ticket issuance and the time of performance, and can replace any originally selected performers who become unavailable with a replacement performer. The game system and method of the present disclosure thus ensure that issued tickets maintain a full complement of chances based on external event outcomes.
