Spotted at E3: L.A. Mayor Cuts Ribbon to Welcome 2009 Expo
June 5, 2009
On Tuesday Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa officially welcomed E3 back to the City of Angels with a presentation to ESA boss Mike Gallagher and a ceremonial ribbon cutting.
And, why not? As the Los Angeles Times reports, E3 2009 generated more than $15 million in commerce for the city.
There's no truth to the rumor, by the way, that those giant scissors are a new Wii peripheral.

JDKJ: O.K. Suit yourself. But when you're wearing Ray-Bans, sitting on a curb with a white cane and a cup of pencils, and doing Stevie Wonder impersonations, don't say I didn't warn you.
