Let me begin by saying that as a Steeler fan, I was pulling for the Eagles to beat the Evil Patriots last night. It had always been my wish to see a Steeler-Eagle Super Bowl, and though that was not to be, it was a great game and the Eagles won it in great fashion leaving Tom Brady and the Patriots feeling, well, deflated.
Not so great was the way Philadelphia celebrated it. My neighbor, who watched the game with me, had remarked about how Philadelphia was about to explode if the Eagles won. I told him that the city had a history of poor celebrations that got out of hand, much like the LA fans after Lakers championship victories.
Sure enough.

Yes, Folks. Philadelphia may have the Eagles, but it is still Philadelphia.
