the local sports scene
Newark is New Jersey's largest city and the state's clearest sporting anchor — the Devils at the Prudential Center are the one major team that belongs to New Jersey without an asterisk about where they actually play.
The local sports scene
The scene
The Prudential Center opened in 2007 and gave the Devils a proper urban home after decades in the Meadowlands. Seton Hall play their basketball there too, which makes it one of the few American buildings hosting a serious NHL side and a Big East programme in the same week. Red Bull Arena in nearby Harrison is a purpose-built soccer ground, and Rutgers, the state university, carries New Jersey's college football hopes in the Big Ten.
Rivalries that matter
The Hudson River Derby between the Red Bulls and NYCFC is the sharpest local fixture. Seton Hall against the New York Big East schools has real edge, and Rutgers' Big Ten membership has given the state a set of rivalries it did not have twenty years ago.
Where to watch
Ironbound is the neighbourhood worth knowing — Portuguese and Brazilian rooms where a Benfica or Flamengo match draws as much attention as anything domestic, and where the Devils are always on somewhere.
