The sun didn't even rise yet, but that didn't stop some Philadelphia Eagles fans from making sure they got downtown early enough to get a good spot for the parade.
Not even freezing temperatures could keep these fans from celebrating with their fellow fans. In the early morning hours, about 50 to 100 Philadelphia Eagles fans were decked out in Midnight green and Kelly green colors. Everyone was in a jovial mood as they were getting ready for their second parade in seven years to celebrate a Super Bowl.
"I wouldn't miss this," said one fan dressed head to toe in Philadelphia Eagles gear. "I don't care how cold it is!"
According to SEPTA workers at the station, fans started showing up as early as 5 a.m.
SEPTA is running an adjusted schedule for the parade. As of the early hours of the morning, trains were running on time and there were no delays to report.
The Fort Washington Train Station, as of 6 a.m., was not crowded. At the time of publishing, no fans could be seen on the platforms and according to SETPA workers, the trains have been running on schedule s far.
The parade kicks off at 11 a.m. The program at the Philadelphia Museum of Art is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. Speeches are expected to wrap up by around 3 p.m.
