Frigid Super Bowl LII brought $370 million in net new spending to the ¡°Bold North¡± Twin Cities area Logan Cooke Jersey , according to a report released Tuesday by Gov. Mark Dayton¡¯s office and the local host committee.

The final tally by Rockport Analytics came in $50 million over the consulting company¡¯s pre-Super Bowl projections. It also said the 10 days leading up to the Feb. 4 game at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis brought in $32 million in new tax revenue for state and local government.

¡±We hosted well,¡± said Maureen Bausch, CEO of the host committee.

The report put gross local spending by visitors, companies hosting events, and the media and operations teams at more than $450. Subtracting $80 million for tourism displaced by the event resulted in net spending of $370 million that would not have happened but for the Super Bowl, it said. The figures don¡¯t include game tickets. Adding in the economic ripple effect brought the total incremental contribution to the metro area¡¯s gross domestic product to $400 million, it said.

That spending ¡±resounded through the local economy,¡± said Ken McGill, managing director of West Chester, Pennsylvania-based Rockport.

Sports economists tend to be skeptical of revenue claims from massive sporting events L. P. Ladouceur Jersey , saying that events may be fun for the community but any monetary windfall to a region is illusory.

¡±The Super Bowl is definitely positive, but nowhere near the $450 million positive in terms of dollars in local people¡¯s pockets,¡± College of the Holy Cross professor Victor Matheson said. For examples, he said, hotel revenue goes mostly to out-of-state chains, and money from sales of jerseys mostly goes to the NFL and manufacturers.

Despite subzero cold and heavy snow, the event drew some 125,000 tourists, which Rockport defined as ticketed and non-ticketed visitors who came from at least 50 miles away or spent a night in hotel. The report said 83 percent of first-time visitors said they would return. The Meet Minnesota convention and visitors bureau said meeting and convention leads are up 30 percent since the game was announced. Leads were up 10 percent year-over-year in the first four months of 2018 alone.

The report found that the average Super Bowl visitor spent $608 per day during an average stay of 3.9 days, compared with a typical tourist who spends about $124 a day. The Super Bowl generated more than 266 Kyle Long Jersey ,000 hotel nights with an average daily room rate of $249, the report said. Thirteen percent of visitors used peer-to-peer rentals such as Airbnb.

More than 1 million visits were made by locals and travelers alike to Super Bowl Live, the free fan festival held over the 10 days leading up to the game.

U.S. Bank Stadium will be in the national spotlight again next April when it hosts the NCAA men¡¯s basketball Final Four. Rockport predicts the tournament will bring $124 million in net spending to the region and $23 million in tax revenue.

A pair of two-homer performances. A bases-loaded triple, followed by another triple. So many unusual things went into Chicago¡¯s biggest comeback of the season that even the White Sox had trouble keeping track.

No matter. They¡¯ll take it.

Daniel Palka and Avisail Garcia each homered twice, and Yoan Moncada tripled with the bases loaded in the 12th inning as the White Sox pulled off their biggest comeback and beat the Cincinnati Reds 12-8 on Tuesday night.

¡±Well, a lot going on today,¡± manager Rick Renteria said.

It was a night of non-stop offense, right from the outset.

Trailing 7-2 after five innings, the White Sox pulled even in the ninth on Garcia¡¯s solo homer off Raisel Iglesias, then pulled it out with the help of a couple of Reds errors.

¡±That last inning was tough Joe Mixon Jersey ,¡± said Reds second baseman Scooter Gennett, whose error opened the way.

The White Sox loaded the bases with a walk and two errors. Moncada¡¯s opposite-field triple off Jackson Stephens (2-1) broke the tie, and Yolmer Sanchez followed with another triple.

Hector Santiago (3-3) fanned six in two innings as the White Sox extended their domination in the interleague series. They¡¯re 17-5 all-time against the Reds, including 11-3 in Cincinnati.

¡±Surreal,¡± said Chicago starter Lucas Giolito, who gave up three homers but wound up on the winning side. ¡±From my perspective, I didn¡¯t get the job done. It¡¯s an awesome feeling that these guys play hard behind you.¡±

Jim Riggleman was ejected by plate umpire Eric Cooper during Chicago¡¯s winning rally, his first ejection as the Reds¡¯ interim manager. They had words as Riggleman was signaling from the dugout for an intentional walk.

¡±Then he made some comment that I didn¡¯t like,¡± Riggleman said. ¡±That¡¯s kind of how the whole game went.¡±

The Reds got the better of a free-swinging game early on, surging ahead 4-0 before Giolito could record an out. Jose Peraza opened with a triple James Burgess Jersey , Gennett hit his 14th homer , Joey Votto walked, and Eugenio Suarez followed with his 17th homer . Suarez performed a salsa dance with Votto after he crossed the plate.

Adam Duvall added a three-run shot into the upper deck in left field in the fifth inning off Giolito for a 7-2 lead, the second time in his career that the right-hander has allowed three homers in a game.

Anthony DeSclafani also gave up a career-high three homers ¨C two by Palka and one by Garcia, who went 3 for 6 and extended his hitting streak to a career-high 13 games.

INTERLEAGUE

The White Sox are 4-10 in interleague play this season. The Reds are 7-2. The loss snapped their streak of six straight wins against the AL.

LONG TIME COMING

The last time the White Sox and Reds played an extra-inning game was Game 6 of the ¡±Black Sox¡± World Series in 1919. Chicago won that game 5-4 in 10 innings at Crosley Field.

HOMECOMING

Giolito started the Futures Game as part of the All-Star festivities at Great American Ball Park in 2015 and pitched two scoreless innings .

SLOPPY, SLOPPY

The Reds committed a season-high four errors ¨C two by Suarez at third, one by Peraza at shortstop and one by Gennett at second base.

ROBBED ¡­ SORT OF

Sanchez¡¯s triple in the 12th came on a weird play. Right fielder Brandon Dixon stretched above the wall and grabbed the fly ball ¨C robbing Sanchez of a homer ¨C but the glove flipped off his hand as he hit the wall and the ball deflected back onto the field.

TRAINER¡¯S ROOM

White Sox: Jose Abreu was out of the lineup a day after he fouled a pitch off his left ankle. X-rays were negative. Abreu pinch hit in the 11th inning and grounded out.

Reds: Homer Bailey threw 103 pitches in 6 2/3 innings of a rehab appearance for Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday night, giving up one run and seven hits while fanning eight. Bailey has been sidelined since June 2 by a sore right knee.

UP NEXT

White Sox: Dylan Covey (3-3) is 0-1 with a 12.71 ERA in his last three starts, walking 12 in 11 1/3 innings and giving up 16 runs.

Reds: Sal Romano (4-8) went 1-2 with a 3.90 ERA in five June starts. He¡¯s been limited to five innings in four of his last six starts.
