Staples Center and all of its refreshment stands will open at approximately 1 p.m. Thursday to fans with tickets to the rally, which starts at 2:30 p.m.
It will feature video highlights from the season, speeches from the players, and some ?surprises,? according to event organizers.
Free tickets to the event are now selling for upward of $200 on sites such as eBay and Craigslist.
