The revolving door at RazorGator Interactive Group continues to spin. Wednesday, the ticket company announced the hiring of entertainment executive Jeffery Lapin as its new president and CEO, replacing David Lord.

Lapin, who has held leadership roles at software company THQ and House of Blues Entertainment, is RazorGator’s third president and CEO in less than four years, fourth if you count Thomas Ball, who was president and CEO of Openfield Technology which RazorGator acquired three years ago. In addition to his new title, Lapin also gains a seat on the Board of Directors….

RazorGator has grown in recent years to be a mainstay in the top 10 of secondary ticket sellers, according to Ticketnews.com’s exclusive weekly ranking of resellers. Helping to fuel its success are its partnership deals with several NFL teams.
