ESPN Coming to Durham on Super Bowl Sunday

Head just over the Northford town line to check out a live Sports Center.

Northford is just a town line away from being the halfway point between the two Super Bowl-bound teams' home stadiums and ESPN will be coming to Durham on Super Bowl Sunday to honor that fact.

The network's flagship program, Sports Center, is looking to build on the drama of Super Bowl XLVI with a few local segments from the geographical midpoint of Foxborough and Met Life Stadiums.

Four years ago, hundreds of Giants and Patriots fans filled the Durham town green in support of their teams and to celebrate the town's unique claim of being the center of the Patriots and Giants universe.
