There's no denying the NFL draft and the fan experience accompanying it is taking up massive space in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art and along the Ben Franklin Parkway.

Road closures have been a hassle for many area residents. But a closure of a different kind should excite at least one group of Philly youngsters.

Roman Catholic High School has announced that they'll be closing on Friday due to the draft.
