The Los Angeles Lazers were an indoor soccer team that played in the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) from 1982 to 1989. ==History== Jerry Buss, the owner of California Sports, the parent company of the Los Angeles Lakers, Kings, Strings of World Team Tennis and the Inglewood Forum, home to all three teams. Buss was always looking for innovative ways to add additional creative programming to the Forum, which is why he called upon his oldest son, Johnny Buss, and long time California Sports executive, Ron Weinstein, to bring indoor soccer to Los Angeles.〔http://www.sover.net/~spectrum/year/1983.html#MISL〕 In 1981, Jerry obtained the rights of the Philadelphia Fever of the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL). Johnny and Ronnie named the team the Los Angeles Lazers and the team began playing in the Fall of 1982. The team’s name stemmed from the up and coming laser light show industry, which management believed would depict a perfect synergy of the lightning fast pace of indoor soccer. It became a pre-game ritual for every LA Lazers game to have a laser show displayed on the walls of the Forum, which even intrigued Neil Diamond to visit the Lazer offices in order to investigate and ultimately incorporate this new laser technology into his own onstage, live performances.〔https://monkfromhavana.wordpress.com/2011/05/04/los-angeles-lazers/〕 Following in the footsteps of the "Showtime" Los Angeles Lakers, the Lazers drew many celebrities to their games including Cher, James Cann, Ricky Schroeder and Neil Diamond. The "Laker Girls" preformed double duty from 1982-1989 performing as the "Lazer Girls" at all home games. This opportunity played a integral part in the career of Paula Abdul, who was the lead dancer and choreographer of the team. Johnny Buss was president of the Los Angeles Lazers from1982-1985. Johnny went on to pursue other endeavors and his younger brother, Jim Buss, took over as president for the 1985-86 season. In 1986, Jerry Buss attended his first MISL Board of Governors meeting. He strongly suggested to the board that they begin to reduce player salaries and gradually move the league into the summer months. Dr. Buss continued to play for three more seasons and after recognizing the MISL was not moving in the proper direction, in the summer of 1989, he shared with Lazers executive Vice President, Ron Weinstein that he was closing the doors on the Lazers. He told Weinstein that if he ever wanted to start a professional indoor soccer league that played in the summer months with a fiscally responsible budget, then he would mentor him while tying the new league into the NBA and NHL. Thus the seed was planted in Ron for the founding of the Continental Indoor Soccer League (CISL).〔http://www.sover.net/~spectrum/year/1984.html#MISL〕
