<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTHE X GAMES ARE COMING TO SACRAMENTO THIS WEEK. LIVECOPTER3 FLEW OVER CAL EXPO WHERE WE SAW SOME CREWS SETTING UP. PRETTY COOL. THE EVENT IS SET TO GO ON AFTER IT WAS POSTPONED LAST YEAR. KCRA 3\u2019S MARICELA DE LA CRUZ HAS WHAT WE CAN EXPECT THIS WEEK. SACRAMENTO IS GETTING READY FOR THE X GAMES, JUST DAYS AWAY FROM THE THREE DAY EVENT. CREWS ARE PUTTING THE FINAL TOUCHES ON THE COURSES AND FEATURING A NOD TO ONE OF THE CITY\u2019S MOST RECOGNIZABLE LANDMARKS, THE TOWER BRIDGE. OFFICIALS WHO HELPED TO BRING THE EVENT TO SACRAMENTO SAY THEY HOPE IT\u2019S THE FIRST OF MANY. THESE EVENTS ARE ALWAYS RESUME BUILDERS. THE MORE YOU CAN POINT TO THE SUCCESS YOU\u2019VE HAD, THE MORE EVENTS YOU ATTRACT TO YOUR CITY. WE\u2019VE SEEN THAT OVER THE YEARS WITH EVERYTHING FROM MUSIC FESTIVALS TO FOOD CONFERENCES TO TO SPORTING EVENTS OF ALL KINDS. SO IT\u2019S A BIG FEATHER IN SACRAMENTO\u2019S HAT TO BE ABLE TO HOST SOMETHING OF THIS CALIBER. VISIT SACRAMENTO\u2019S MIKE TESTA SAYS THE CITY\u2019S SUCCESS HOSTING MAJOR EVENTS HELPED TO LAND THE X GAMES, AND THE PAYOFF COULD BE BIG. OFFICIALS EXPECT THOUSANDS OF VISITORS, A BOOST FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES AND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN ECONOMIC IMPACT. THIS EVENT HAS BEEN AROUND FOR A LONG TIME. IT\u2019S GOT A PRETTY BIG FOLLOWING, SO WE EXPECT A LOT OF PEOPLE FROM THE BAY AREA, DIFFERENT PARTS OF CALIFORNIA TO COME OUT AND SUPPORT THIS EVENT. AND FROM A TOURISM STANDPOINT, YOU KNOW, EVENTS LIKE THIS ARE VALUABLE BECAUSE IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO BUILD THE FACILITIES AT CAL EXPO. SO WE\u2019VE HAD A LOT OF FOLKS IN TOWN STAYING IN HOTELS FOR THE WEEKS LEADING UP TO THIS. WHILE THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THE X GAMES ARE COMING TO SACRAMENTO, THE EVENT\u2019S REACH GOES FAR BEYOND THOSE WHO SHOW UP IN PERSON. FANS ARE EXPECTED TO TRAVEL FROM ACROSS CALIFORNIA AND BEYOND, AND THE COMPETITION WILL ALSO BE BROADCAST NATIONWIDE. THE X GAMES ON TV IS VERY EXCITING, RIGHT? SO THAT THAT PASSION CAN OFTEN BE FELT THROUGH THE VIEWER AND THEN, YOU KNOW, YOU EXPECT THEM TO SHOW SCENIC SHOTS OF SACRAMENTO AS THEY GO TO COMMERCIAL. THE IDEA IS IT\u2019S A IT\u2019S A POSTCARD OF SACRAMENTO THAT STREAMED INTO CITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. AND IT\u2019S NOT JUST ABOUT THE COMPETITION. VISITORS CAN ALSO EXPECT TO SEE SOME LIVE MUSIC PERFORMANCES, DIFFERENT EVENTS, FOOD, OF COURSE, OUT HERE, MAKING THIS ONE OF THE BIGGEST SUMMER EVENTS OF THE YEAR TO HIT SACRAMENTO MARICELA DE LA CRUZ KCRA THREE NEWS. AND AS ATHLETES GET READY TO TAKE FLIGHT THIS WEEKEND, SACRAMENTO IS HOPING THAT THE EVENT HELPS ELEVATE T\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
