Today the National Football League will open the 20th NFL Experience at the Indiana Convention Center, which will run until February 4th. The NFL Experience presented by GMC is the most exciting continuous event surrounding Super Bowl XLVI — pro football’s interactive theme park offering participatory games, displays, entertainment attractions, kids’ football clinics, free autograph sessions and the largest football memorabilia show ever.

As BTN residents we certainly aren’t “visitors” in our own city but if you’d like more information on all that is being offered downtown (Super Bowl village, parking, events, street closures, etc.) visit http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/46/guide.
