Ticket resale bill advances

Legislation designed to contain aggressive ticket sales at sporting events has advanced at the Capitol. Originally written to address the concerns of the Milwaukee Brewers baseball club, regarding ticket resales outside Miller Park, the bill (SB 458) has now been amended to include the Bradley Center, home of the Milwaukee Bucks, as well as the Kohl Center and Camp Randall Stadium on the UW Madison campus. All of those venues could create ticket resale zones under the terms of the bill from state Senator Jim Sullivan.
