Eagles fans took to the streets of Philadelphia Sunday night, after the team’s stunning Super Bowl victory against the New England Patriots — and carnage ensued.
Despite the best efforts of the Philadelphia police — who spent much of the weekend greasing up telephone poles and setting up barricades around Wawa’s — rowdy Eagles fans managed to turn their city into the Purge for the night.
Much of the carnage was captured on social media, and you can watch some of the best moments from Philadelphia’s demise below.
