Birds of a feather
Eagle masks, championship belts, famous actors, and literal birds. Diehard fans brought the party to the parking lots.
Ahead of last week’s season opener at Lincoln Financial Field, Eagles fans swarmed the tailgate lots outside the stadium to create the kind of scene you’ll only find in Philly. There were former players, famous actors, and fans (from across the country) showing off all sorts of Eagles paraphernalia, from big hats to big chains to ... parrots?
