I would probably make the button using two movies and a button. The structure would be:

ticketsButtonMovie
|
+-ticketsButton
+-ticketsMovie - instance name = ticketsMov

The top level movie is just for cleanness so that in _root (for example) you would just have a single object to position etc.

ticketsMovie would have a stop(); action in frame 1 and a gotoAndPlay(1); action in the last frame. In between animate the individual characters as desired. i.e. frame 5 scale "T" to 150, frame 7 scale "i" to 150 etc, then apply tweening to each. (using this method requires that each character is on its own layer, or even in its own movie clip (dynamic text maybe))

the ticketsButton would have something like:

on(rollOver)
{
ticketsMov.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
on(rollOut)
{
ticketsMov.gotoAndStop(1);
}

Theres loads more different ways you could do it, thats just how I might do it.

hope that helps or at least gives you food for thought
