The Eagles won their first Super Bowl in franchise history on Sunday night in a spectacular 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots. The win sent the city of Philadelphia and its fans around the country into a frenzy.
The fine citizens of Philly poured into the streets to raise a little hell, chant Nick Foles’ name, climb some gates and maybe burn some things. Kobe Bryant danced around his house in disbelief that the Eagles “won the f*cking Super Bowl” while bouncing his baby girl in his arms.
At the game, Philly native and Eagles superfan Kevin Hart tried to get on stage for the trophy presentation and then crashed the NFL Network set to give a heartfelt speech that ended in an accidental F-bomb. Also at the game was current Philly sports legend Joel Embiid, who flew in on the Sixers’ off night to take in his new hometown team’s game and afterwards he crashed a local TV broadcast in a hilarious spot as he excitedly promised the Sixers were next and to, of course, trust the process.

Embiid’s seemingly genuine love for all things Philadelphia has endeared him to the faithful there and this will only further that loving bond between city and star. Embiid looks like he had a lot of fun at the game and he’s never afraid of being a man of the people, so it should come as no surprise he’s out there with the rest of the Eagles fans looking to celebrate the win.
