Exhibit 31

                                 CERTIFICATION

      I, Mitchell J. Francis, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer of Tix Corporation (formerly Cinema Ride, Inc.) certify that:

1.  I have reviewed this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Tix Corporation
(formerly Cinema Ride, Inc.) for the year ended December 31, 2004;

2.  Based on my knowledge, this annual report does not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to
make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such
statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by
this report;

3.  Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects
the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the small
business issuer as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4.  I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
small business issuer and have:

      a.  Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
      disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under my supervision,
      to ensure that material information relating to the small business
      issuer, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to me by
      others within those entities, particularly during the period in which
      this report is being prepared;

      b.  Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's
      disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report my
      conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
      procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on
      such evaluation; and

      c.  Disclosed in this report any change in the small business issuer's
      internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the small
      business issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the small business
      issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has
      materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
      small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting; and

5.  I have disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation of internal control
over financial reporting, to the small business issuer's auditors and the
audit committee of the small business issuer's board of directors (or persons
performing the equivalent functions):

      a.  All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design
      or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
      reasonably likely to adversely affect the small business issuer's
      ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information;
      and

      b.  Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
      other employees who have a significant role in the small business
      issuer's internal controls over financial reporting.
