Ticketmaster in Deal With Arena
Los Angeles-based Ticketmaster, the nation’s leading ticketing firm, has contracted with L.A.’s under-construction Staples Center to provide ticketing for all events, effective when the arena opens in fall of 1999.

Ticketmaster currently tickets those games at the Great Western Forum and the Los Angeles Sports Arena. Ticketmaster was purchased earlier this year by Barry Diller-controlled USA Networks.
