No One Likes Us, We Don't Care

To be an Eagles fan is to embrace the underdog mentality, even when you're the favorite. The "Bird Gang" is arguably the most knowledgeable and intense fanbase in the league. They cheer good plays, but they will absolutely let you know if the effort isn't there. This accountability creates a bond between the city and the team that is unbreakable.

The emotional high of Super Bowl LII—defeating the Patriots dynasty with a backup quarterback—forever changed the franchise. It validated generations of loyalty. But in Philly, you're only as good as your last game. The hunger for another parade down Broad Street never fades.

The Linc and Xfinity Live!

Lincoln Financial Field replaced the crumbling Vet, but it kept the soul of South Philly. The stadium is open-cornered, allowing the wind to swirl, but the noise stays trapped. The chant "E-A-G-L-E-S, EAGLES!" erupts spontaneously—in the parking lot, in the concourse, and definitely after every touchdown.

Across the street lies Xfinity Live!, a massive entertainment complex that serves as the pre-game and post-game headquarters. If you don't have a ticket to the game, watching it here on the 32-foot screen with hundreds of other fans is the next best thing.

A Culture of Toughness

The Eagles identity is built on defense and toughness. Whether it's the "Gang Green" defense of the Reggie White era or the modern pass rush, fans expect physical play. Players who show grit—like Jason Kelce or Brian Dawkins—are elevated to god-like status. If you hustle in Philly, they will love you forever.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the fight song?▼
'Fly Eagles Fly' is sung after every touchdown. The music stops, and the crowd screams 'E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!' at the top of their lungs. It is mandated participation for anyone in the building.
Where is the Rocky Statue?▼
The Rocky Statue is located at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, about 4 miles north of the stadium. However, visiting fans often run up the 'Rocky Steps' before heading to the tailgate.
What is the best cheesesteak near the stadium?▼
Tony Luke's on Oregon Ave is the closest legislative landmark for cheesesteaks. However, debates about Pat's vs. Geno's vs. Jim's will start arguments in any tailgate lot.
Is the stadium covered?▼
The Linc provides cover for some upper rows and club seats, but the vast majority of seating is exposed to the elements. Late-season games can be brutally cold, so dress in layers.
Can I take the subway to the game?▼
Yes! The SEPTA Broad Street Line (Orange Line) is the best way to get there. Take it south to the generic 'NRG Station' (last stop), and you'll walk right into the sports complex.
