Just days after becoming a portion of America Online, StubHub.com has announced the details of a deal making them the sole distributors of tickets into Heaven. StubHub.com traditionally provides access to resell tickets for sold-out events as well as hard-to-find tickets to venues such as TV tapings, movie shoots, and film festivals. With the power of America Online, branching off into new premium services was a natural step. Sources indicate that StubHub.com has actually been in talks with the Vatican for nearly eight months, but had been unable to work out a deal until now. News of the service expansion caused America Online stock to rise nearly 1% within two hours.
