Eagles Fans Took Over New Orleans After Dominant Super Bowl Win
The New York Times
Philadelphia’s loyal supporters made themselves at home, with joyous fans partying outside the Superdome and others making their way to Bourbon Street.
As the clock ran out at the Super Bowl on Sunday night, and the Philadelphia Eagles ran onto the field in New Orleans, confetti filled the Superdome and the team’s fight song, “Fly Eagles Fly,” blared over the speakers.
Chants of “E-A-G-L-E-S” came from all corners of the 83,000-seat stadium. But now, fans went into overdrive, dressed in beads and sequins, flapping their arms like birds, and hoisting one another onto their shoulders.
There was plenty for those Eagles fans to cheer as Philadelphia beat Kansas City, 40-22, stopping the Chiefs from becoming the first team in N.F.L. history to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
Lit with green lights, Eagles fans spilled out of the stadium whistling, high-fiving strangers and dancing to a drum band, as Chiefs fans walked by sadly and serenely.
Throughout the game, the excitement had extended beyond the field.
President Trump, who was a guest of Gayle Benson, the owner of the New Orleans Saints, watched some of the game from a suite alongside members of his family, including his daughter Ivanka Trump and his daughter-in-law Lara Trump. He was also joined by members of Congress, including Speaker Mike Johnson. In another suite, the former first lady Jill Biden cheered on the Eagles with help from her grandson, Robert Hunter Biden, among others.
