Read all about it
Thousands of sports fans keep their eyes on the jumbotron in arenas like Prudential Center in Newark not just to watch the action, but to read about it too. Thanks in part to the ongoing efforts of Wood-Ridge resident and deaf sports junkie Gary Noll (top), live closed captions are becoming the norm on stadium scoreboards, giving hearingimpaired fans a chance to follow the action closely. The Pru Center, home to the Devils and Seton Hall basketball, has four CC boards, while Rutgers’ Jersey Mike Arena and pro soccer facility Red Bull Arena in Harrison have two CC boards each. In New York, Madison Square Garden, UBS Arena, Belmont Park and others also have two CC boards each because of Noll’s advocacy.“
