The fans have flocked to the super bowl. They love it. It is actually a very partisan crowd so far. We have been hearing eagles chant after eagles chant. So maybe it is like an eagles home game. Nick foles is set. One of them, this is a guy, almost retired from football. Here he is, in the super bowl, and he has been here before. He was with the eagles in 2013 i asked him earlier in the week what this would all mean because he can be, the hero of this town for a long time. Have you thought about what it would mean to the city to finally win a super bowl and for you to be the one to help bring it. I really havent thought about it, im just staying in the moment. We have to earn that right. We have to prepare. We have to play this game. The game has not been played yet. We have a lot of work. I know what it means to the city. I know what it means. We came here for one thing, bring that trophy back to philly. I think bit all time. I dream about holding it going up broad street, it will be a great feeling. It will be pure craziness. Better get extra security because you dont know what will happen. I think yall feel the same way, you know what it will be about. Whatever we can control, we can control but we want this game just asnybody and it has been on my mind. Lets hope they can do it, we will take that extra security. Absolutely coming up later in sports we will hear from the longest tenured Eagles Brent Celek talented tight event. Shes jamie apody im Ducis Rodgers.

They are inside, most of them a few here and there but take a look at the scene ahead , as it is unfolding here on the ground of the site of the super bowl 52 downtown minneapolis, at u. S. Bank stadium. People pouring into the stadium, beginning in the midmorning, late into the afternoon and a few people now trying to get that their seats as well, minutes away, atmosphere one of excitement. We saw people inside in their green in their white representing the city of philadelphia.

Before they went inside that building they were, inside that, not far away, and , pregame partying. Fly eagles fly, score a touchdown 123 that is scene inside, fluke s restaurant in downtown minneapolis, this afternoon taking over by eagles fans. Now, smaller version of this Group Tailgate at every eagles home game, but this one, they win big. This is a lot of fun. This is a roomful about suffering. For a generation we have all suffered. But today, we do it. Today we end the suffering. Well, from inside that steamy Tailgate Party to outside, in the freezing cold, we found an eagles fan with his shirt off. This group is known as the green legion. They call themselves the number one fan club of the philadelphia eagles. They chartered their own, aircraft, to the city of minneapolis, 160 strong, they landed this morning and they dont care about the temperatures, they are here to root on their birds.
