THE RIVALRY

Known as THE RIVALRY, the Lafayette-Lehigh football game is the most-played college football rivalry in the nation. The two teams first took to the gridiron in 1884, just one year after the first standardized football rules were established, and have played 159 times since.

EASTON, PA

Welcome to Easton! Located in the Lehigh Valley region of Pennsylvania, Easton is home to a population of 28,000. In addition to the historic downtown district, we are equally proud of our diverse and architecturally rich neighborhoods.
Downtown Easton offers a diverse array of shopping and dining opportunities, from casual to formal. Easton is also the home of Larry Holmes, the Hall of Fame boxer who held the Heavyweight Boxing Title for more than seven and a half years. A bronze statue honoring Mr. Holmes, a.k.a the "Easton Assassin," overlooks the scenic Forks of the Delaware, where the Lehigh River cascades into the mighty Delaware River on its trip to the Delaware Bay.

The County Seat for Northampton County, Easton is located within an hour of New York City, Philadelphia, and the Pocono Mountains.

THE POCONOS

The Pocono Mountains, or Poconos, encompass forested peaks, lakes and valleys in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. On the eastern edge is the Delaware Water Gap, with river beaches and recreation facilities. Trails and bridges connect the waterfalls at nearby Bushkill Falls. Resorts dot the area, many with ski runs and water parks. Boat launches offer access to fishing in Lake Wallenpaupack to the north.
