Scenes from Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl Championship

The Eagles are Super Bowl Champions!

(Sidenote: If you’re expecting an educational sustainability post, you’re not getting it today. But we’re taking our name, Green Philly, literally today and painting our website Green. So celebrate history with us for one day.)

We walked around the city, and the excitement is everywhere. Like if you want to pick up organic fruit and cheer, swing by Whole Foods.

The Kimmel Center looks dashingly brighter today with an Eagles banner.

Last evening, the celebrations exploded on Broad Street as anticipated. They told Philadelphia not to climb the poles. So we improvised for recycling/trash trucks.

Walk on Broad Street for a few puns in support of our home team.

And it obviously wouldn’t be a true Philadelphia celebration without a hat tip to our forefathers. Ben Franklin’s peeping from One Liberty with his support. 

One more time: E-A-G-L-E-S Eagles! See you on Broad Street on Thursday.
