Celebrities were out at Lincoln Financial Field on Monday to take in the Eagles’ dominating 24-7 win over the Minnesota Vikings.

Among those spotted in the stands were Bradley Cooper (wearing an Allen Iverson T-shirt), Phillies slugger Bryce Harper, and Emmy-winning Abbott Elementary creator and actress Quinta Brunson (fresh off getting an apology from Jimmy Kimmel), who snapped a picture with Questlove. Brunson also gave a shout-out to the Eagles during an appearance on Good Morning America Tuesday morning.

“Our showdown’s coming pretty soon,” host and former New York Giants great Michael Strahan shot back (the Eagles don’t face the Giants until Dec. 11).

Kimmel’s late night sidekick Guillermo partied with tailgating Eagles fans and introduced some die-hards on the show following the win, including the tattooed Rob Dunphy and Shaun Young, better known as the guy who wears shoulder pads to every Eagles game.

“Twenty-five seasons, baby, representing the greatest city and the greatest fanbase in the country, Philadelphia, baby!” Young shouted.

James Harden was also in the stands, and during the fourth quarter the Sixers star was given a football by Eagles defender Darius Slay after one of his two interceptions.

“I got my ball signed, I’m good,” Harden told reporters following the game.

Some of the stars of Always Sunny in Philadelphia — Glenn Howerton, Charlie Day, and Rob McElhenney — were in Philadelphia Monday for a live taping of their podcast at the Met but don’t appear to have made it to the game. That doesn’t mean they weren’t there in spirit: During their live show, the crew celebrated each time the Eagles scored. They lead the crowd in the E-A-G-L-E-S cheer and had updates on a screen. It was a good night for the It’s Always Sunny crew. Not only did the Eagles win but the city declared Monday, Sept. 19, 2022, “It’s Always Sunny Podcast Day in Philadelphia.”

ESPN attempted to riff on the popular show during its broadcast, but the animation they put together can only be described as weird.
