The triumphant Eagles have touched down back in Philadelphia after blowing the Kansas City Chiefs away in the Super Bowl on Sunday night.
Eagles general manager Howie Roseman hoisted the Vince Lombardi trophy aloft as he stepped off the plane at Philadelphia International Airport on Monday – fresh of a victory in Super Bowl LIX.
A week of partying lies in store in The City of Brotherly Love, with the parade scheduled for Friday.
Roseman was joined by Eagles owner Jeff Lurie and head coach Nick Sirianni as the first people off the plane when it landed – with plenty of grateful Philadelphians awaiting their return.
The city has been a non-stop party scene since Sunday’s success – with hordes of people flooding the streets and celebrating.
The Eagles had been living it up as well – with a smoke-filled locker room at the Superdome giving way to partying into the early morning hours at a New Orleans nightclub.

Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts wasn’t with the team, having gone to Walt Disney World in Florida – a tradition for those who win the honor of being named the best player of the Big Game.
Eagles players celebrated with their wives and girlfriends on the field in joyous scenes after knocking off the Chiefs and preventing a three-peat.
Philadelphia dominated from beginning to end in a game where a 40-22 scoreline flattered the Kansas City Chiefs and the Eagles got revenge for their loss in Super Bowl LVII.
The Eagles went into the half up 24-0 on the back-to-back champions as quarterback Patrick Mahomes tossed two first-half interceptions – including a pick-six.
After Kendrick Lamar performed his halftime show set, the Eagles continued putting up numbers – entering the fourth quarter up 34-6.
Mahomes led the Chiefs to 16 points in the final frame, but six points from the Eagles ensured the game wasn’t close.
The game was watched on by Donald Trump, who became the first sitting American President to attend a Super Bowl. As for if the Eagles will go to the White House, some fans believe that Philadelphia could pass – especially after a non-committal answer from Sirianni.
Philadelphia earned its second Super Bowl title in team history, having previously won Super Bowl LII over the New England Patriots in the 2017 season.
