How to Buy X Games Tickets Online
Tickets for the August 2004 Summer X Games in Los Angeles
went on sale at 12 noon on June 17, 2004 and they are available online
through Ticketmaster. Ticket prices range from $5 to $15.
I recommend purchasing your tickets now, and buying the best
tickets you can afford, because some viewing locations are
not that great, especially for the half pipe events

Meet Me at the Los Angeles X Games!
The 10th annual EXPN Summer X Games
will take place
in Los Angeles, California August 5-8, 2004.
This is great news for me because (1) I live
in Venice Beach not far from the X Games venue, and (2) that date
does not conflict with the early September
Speed Worlds in
Italy which I am also hoping to attend.
I will be in the press area at all of
the Staples Center events, which includes the
skateboarding and inline skating competitions and some of the
Moto X and stunt bike events.

Staples Center in Downtown Los Angeles or the Home Depot Sports Center in Carson
(all inline skating and skateboarding events will be at Staples Center),

- no preliminaries.
Watch for the X Games Ads on TV
Eight new TV and print ads for the Summer X Games
were filmed in April of 2004 at the Los Angeles International
Airport. The ads portray X Games X professional athletes in various airport
scenarios, all rushing to get to Los Angeles for the the X Games.
Bucky and Bob Filming an X Games TV Ad
Bucky Lasek and Bob Burnquist, two of the top pro skateboarders in the world,
