Behind The Scenes

Editor’s 2011 picks: Photos from
A Day In the Life 3/30/11, Part 2

Editor’s note: Happy New Year! Front Row is revisiting a few of our most popular posts from our first nine months of existence in 2011 — just in case you missed them the first time.

It’s been a fast nine months of ESPN Front Row.

It all started with our “A Day In The Life” photo project, a real-time look at ESPN employees at work for a 24-hour period.

Yesterday, we revisited the first 12 hours of March 30, 2011.
