"In less time than it takes to play an NBA game, all available tickets were snapped up Monday for Saturday's 7 p.m. NBA lockout all-star exhibition at Florida International University.

Within an hour of the noon start of sales, all of the $100 lower-level reserved seats were gone for the game that will feature Miami Heat stars LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. In less than two hours, the remainder of the $50 upper-level seats were sold out, as well.

While the game will be played at 5,000-seat U.S. Century Bank Arena, ongoing renovations and other logistics will reduce capacity closer to 4,000.

The limited ticket supply created a frenetic scene at the University Credit Union Box Office at FIU Stadium, with some windows accepting credit cards and others cash only. There were no phone or online orders taken for the event, marketed as, "LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh present the South Florida All-Star Classic.""
