A year-long celebration of the "Birthplace of College Football" culminates Wednesday with Rutgers University commemorating the site of the first-ever college football game.

Rutgers Athletics will begin the celebration with the Ringing of the Bells at Old Queens on the College Avenue campus.

The bell, gifted to the University from Colonel Henry Rutgers in 1826, is used to mark significant occasions university-wide.

A Rutgers drumline will then lead a procession of Rutgers Athletics representatives, fans and guests to the College Avenue Gym for the unveil of a new plaque to commemorate the first game.

It was donated by Devco and the City of New Brunswick and will mark the site where Rutgers defeated Princeton on November 6, 1869.
