TOLEDO -- Toledo's new arena has only been opened for a couple years but it's already considered one of the best in the world.

The Huntington Center was ranked 98th in the world by concert industry magazine Pollstar.  That's based on ticket sales during the first half of 2011.  The 8,000 seat arena sold more than 58,000 tickets from January to June.

Another concert magazine, Venues Today, ranked the arena seventh in the midsized capacity catergory.  It's ranking was based on ticket sales revenue from May 16  thru June 15, 2011. The Huntington Center generated $831,000  in revenue during that time.
