Palindrome Sports
In the year 2004 a sporting event was/will be held that will be a word palindrome. In other words, the words, not the letters, put backwards will read the same. (e.g., we are they, they are we.) What will the sporting event be?
Hint

X Games X. The second X stands for 10, and like most sporting events it is done in Roman Numerals.Hide Hint Show Hint Hide Answer Show Answer

You DID comment on your own! Bad form! Apart from the fact that this was so obscure I can't imagine anyone getting it. Come on! You know, you don't HAVE to submit them, you know?
how is this obscure? The X-Games are international, and the olympics, the super bowl, the world cup (i belive) all use roman numberals. I think that anyone should be able to get this if they give it some thought.
I've seen the answer and I still don't get it.
What are numberals?
"the words, not the letters, put backwards will read the same. (e.g., we are they, they are we.)"
You just contradicted yourself.
