Devils boast world's biggest in-arena scoreboard
The New Jersey Devils have unveiled the world's largest, in-arena, center-hung scoreboard, which now resides in the Prudential Center.
The scoreboard weighs 88,401 pounds, takes up 9,584.9 square feet, stands almost four stories tall, and contains 29,610,024 SMD pixels.
Needless to say, it catches the eye.
Players slowly trickling onto Prudential Center ice here in Newark. Every single player looking up in awe at the new scoreboard. #NJDevils

Per the team, "the video screens in the scoreboard are equivalent in square footage to 1,300 50-inch televisions, and the scoreboard contains 20 individual displays, including four HD underbelly units."
Here's a look at all the details and how it came together:

Detroit's Little Caesars Arena held the distinction of having the biggest scoreboard, but that lasted one regular-season game, much to the delight of the Devils.
