Philadelphia Eagles fans flip car, climb street lights, jump from bus shelter as Chiefs win Super Bowl
It was a rollercoaster of emotions for Philadelphia Eagles fans Sunday after the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl 38-35.
Early, the fans flipped a car during a pregame street celebration Sunday in Philadelphia.
The Eagles jumped out to a 24-14 halftime lead in Super Bowl LVII at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., but the Chiefs scored on every possession in the second half to claim the title.
Still, Eagles fans made their way to the streets of Philadelphia.
A questionable late penalty on Philadelphia Eagles cornerback James Bradberry with less than two minutes remaining meant that a scintillating Super Bowl 57 had a bit of an underwhelming finish. The Chiefs — who won 38-35 — were driving and faced third-and-8 at the Eagles 15-yard line with 1:54 remaining when Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw incomplete to JuJu Smith-Schuster.
But officials flagged Bradberry for defensive holding, which negated the incompletion and gave the Chiefs a first down. Replays showed that Bradberry made light contact with Smith-Schuster, but it didn’t appear to affect the play. Kansas City was able to essentially run out the clock from that point forward and kick a late field goal for the win.
