Super Bowl 56 is set to surpass several records.
The big game--pitting the Los Angeles Rams against the Cincinnati Bengals-- is expected to attract 117-million viewers Sunday.
That would be a 21 percent increase from last year.
And though the game will be in Inglewood California, it’s already having a big impact in Las Vegas.
According to the American Gaming Association – 31 million Americans will bet $7.6 billion dollars on the game. That would be another record.
But the impact here will be felt in more than just Nevada’s sports books.
In preparation for the superbowl in Las Vegas two years from now, Las Vegas police are studying how LA is working on traffic flow, safety and a whole host of other issues added to a city when hundreds of thousands of visitors show up.
