ABA announces a fast new way to get your tickets

October 17, 2005 - American Basketball Association (ABA) News Release


Indianapolis, IN. The American Basketball Association (ABA) today announced its new online ticket program - abaonlinetickets.com - that will be managed by MyE Networks. The program has been developed exclusively for the ABA by MyE Networks and is the fastest, easiest, and best way to order tickets online. The system is also unique in that a portion of the ticket price will be donated to a charity of the fans choice. The system also reduces substantially the normal transaction charges of online purchases.

MyE Networks CEO Greg Jablonsky stated, "We couldn't be more excited about this program." "The ABA is a tremendous organization that is dedicated to one thing - sports and entertainment at affordable prices - and this new online ticket program will make it possible for fans to take advantage of this with the new MyE Networks' online ticket system.

"This new online ticketing system is really innovative," said Joe Newman, ABA CEO. "It provides for superior customer service and a better price point to our fans which was vital to us as we always strive to offer affordable entertainment. Fans will be able to buy tickets from the ABA website (www.abalive.com) and most of the teams' websites also. And we are pleased to be able to donate a portion of every ticket sold to charity, including Katrina and Rita hurricane relief."

MyE Networks is a technology company based in Denver, Colorado. The company has developed products for the educational, media, business-to-business, business-to-customer and professional sports markets. Products include communication engines that allow an entity to instantly and simultaneously communicate with large groups of people via all vital communication platforms and an online business listing service.

"One of the highlights of this online ticket system is its simplicity. Click to www.abaonlinetickets.com. Pick out your favorite team. Click. All tickets are priced at $12.00 (general admission). Pick you game, pick the number of tickets, pick your charity - and your tickets will be confirmed via email and put at the Will Call window for the game(s) of your choice," added Newman. "This is great."
