The Penn Relays Details
A late April tradition, the annual Penn Relay Carnival dates back more than 100 years, making it the world’s first and most recognized relay meet.
Each year, this historic rite of spring draws crowds of up to 50,000 to the University of Pennsylvania’s Franklin Field, where spectators know they’ll see some of the world’s top track athletes compete — and begin Olympic careers.
And along with the athletes come the fans, who also hail from all over the country and the world. There is an accompanying festival offering food, crafts and souvenirs along the streets that surround the stadium.
The Jamaican contingent is always very big, so if you’re a fan of jerk chicken, you’re in luck!
