An obnoxious Philadelphia Eagles fan tried baiting police officers into throwing down with him during the Super Bowl 59 celebration.
Jalen Hurts and Philadelphia defeated the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 to secure the franchise’s second Lombardi Trophy in eight seasons.
Unfortunately, during the victory celebration, many Eagles fans got out of control and engaged in violent acts on the streets of Philadelphia. According to city police, close to 50 people were arrested on Sunday, including five for assaults on officers.
As Philadelphia police tried to keep things under control, cameras caught one angry Eagles fan attempting to fight multiple officers after they prevented him from jumping over a gate. Thankfully, there was no violence here as multiple fans held back the fan and prevented the confrontation from escalating.

Eagles supporters have a reputation for being a lot more passionate and boisterous than most other fanbases. It’s one thing to have tremendous passion for your team, but it’s disappointing when a few hooligans have to ruin the excitement for the real fans and citizens of Philly.
Another Lombardi Trophy For Eagles Fans To Celebrate
The Flyers and 76ers have sunk to total irrelevance, and the Phillies haven’t been able to build off their unexpected run to the 2022 World Series. But none of that matters in Philadelphia right now, because the Eagles finally got their hands back on the Lombardi Trophy after a seven-year wait.
