SPOKANE, Wash. - 250,000 people. Whether you're a player, fan, volunteer, business owner, chances are you were downtown this weekend at the 23rd Hoopfest.

This year there were 7,000+ teams, with over 28,000 players on over 450 courts. 42 city blocks were shut down while over 225,000 fans flocked to watch the largest 3-on-3 basketball tournament in the world bringing in an estimated $38 million dollars to Spokane.

So if we're downtown and have a camera handy, send in those pictures to pix@khq.com for the Hoopfest 2012 SLIDESHOW (jpg format please).

    KHQ.COM - State B 2014! It has such a lovely ring to it! The small towns have come to Spokane as they do every year to battle it out on the hardwood for State B supremacy. While most of the action is on the court, a lot of what makes State B so much fun is all the fans who come to cheer on their kids, grand kids, students, brothers, sisters... whatever!

    PORTLAND, Ore. - Zawadi Mungu, proud father of the pride, is now spending time with his cubs. He's a 500-pound mega-carnivore capable of pulling a buffalo to the ground, but Zawadi Mungu now plays a new role: cat toy.
    PORTLAND, Ore. - Zawadi Mungu, proud father of the pride, is now spending time with his cubs. He's a 500-pound mega-carnivore capable of pulling a buffalo to the ground, but Zawadi Mungu now plays a new role: cat toy. Last week, the male lion ventured outside with his trio of energetic cubs for the first time, and demonstrated a remarkable tolerance for a flurry of pint-sized attacks on his mane, tail and patience.

    KHQ.COM - At first glance, the images of this sweet, homeless dog, seem rather gruesome and it may take a second to figure out exactly what you are looking at. While the dog looks mangled and disfigured, he was actually just covered in matted, dirty fur. In fact, the dog had so much dirty fur, that he appeared to be about two times his actual size.
