The governing body of any county, city or town may provide, by ordinance,
that it shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to resell for
profit any ticket for admission to any sporting event, theatrical production,
lecture, motion picture or any other event open to the public for which
tickets are ordinarily sold, except in the case of religious, charitable, or
educational organizations where all or a portion of the admission price
