Thousands of Philadelphia Eagles fans took to the streets of downtown Philadelphia following the team’s 38-7 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, January 21.

After the game, huge crowds gathered in front of Philadelphia City Hall as the Eagles began to gear up for their first Super Bowl appearance since 2005.

One clip shared to Instagram shows a crowd of Eagles fans singing, “Fly, Eagles Fly. On the road to victory,” in front of Philadelphia City Hall.

Elsewhere in Philadelphia, Eagles fans scaled greasy lamp posts despite the best efforts of police to stop them, while one Eagles fan drove a dune buggy up the city’s iconic Rocky Steps. Credit: Instagram/thiagoduffles via Storyful

ABOUT THE CARTOON:\r
Preservation Hall Recordings is proud to present a brand-new, locally produced animated music video! Directed by Lafayette-based visual artist James Tancill, the music video for the Preservation Hall / King Britt remix of St. James Infirmary by the Preservation Hall Hot 4 is an animated romp in the style of Max Fleischer (Betty Boop, etc.) that plays out like a storybook caper set against a backdrop of beloved New Orleans characters and institutions both old and new. Audiences familiar with the iconography of New Orleans music and culture will thrill as characters and beloved landmarks from the past and present find new life in an animated tableau. \r
\r
Set to music by The Preservation Hall Jazz Band (as led by dearly departed bandleader John Brunious, Jr. and remixed by noted Philadelphia DJ and producer King Britt (Digable Planets, E-Culture) and Preservation Hall Creative Director Ben Jaffe) the video for St. James Infirmary follows the antics of Ronnie Numbers and Mr. The Turk of The New Orleans Bingo! Show through a dark and mischievous imagining of the songs classic narrative as sung by Clint Maedgen (PHJB, The New Orleans Bingo! Show). Starring animated versions of Clint Maedgen, Ben Jaffe, and King Britt; and featuring appearances by such departed icons as John Brunious Jr., Sweet Emma Barrett, and Marie Laveau in such familiar settings as Preservation Hall, Jackson Square, and the long-defunct Pontchartrain Beach amusement park, St. James Infirmary is the third music video from Preservation Hall Recordings to feature the cross-over appeal of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band and The New Orleans Bingo! Show.\r

About Director James Tancill:\r
A former native of New Orleans displaced by Hurricane Katrina, Visual Artist James Tancill now lives in Lafayette, Louisiana with his wife Jo Ellen. Currently an Instructor at the University of Louisiana, James has a BA and MFA from the University of New Orleans. Having spent most of his time in New Orleans projecting films for local theatres and teaching drawing and cartooning at the New Orleans Charter Middle School, it was only natural that he would eventually form his own animation company. Motivated by his passion for film, music, and classic cartoons, as well as by his deep love of all things New Orleans, James is very proud of the collaborative effort by which he and Ben Jaffe of Preservation Hall have captured the city of New Orleans in what may be the citys first locally-produced animation about the city itself.\r

About King Britt (in his own words)\r
Well, bios are funny because they tell the story of the past of who you are in the present. I try to only live in the present and the future (as I said, try). Even though beginning my career in 1990 on the now legendary house label Strictly Rhythm as E- Culture, being Silkworm in the ground- breaking, Grammy winning Digable Planets, starting Ovum Recordings with Josh Wink, producing platinum remixes for Macy Gray, Solange, Donna Lewis and hundreds of others, winning the highest grant in the country as the first dj/producer, The Pew Fellowship or starting my empire, FiveSixMedia, I still try to live in the NOW and not the then.\r
\r
So of course, now, I am a father, fiance, musicologist of sorts and media revolutionary. My label and company FiveSixMedia, set the example of an individual who is able to live outside the box and show what freedom truly is. Doing my own thing on my own time and assisting other to move into that space as well.\r
\r
The future is bright because I say it is. Stop and smell the flowers.\r

Take a tour of Independence Hall in Philadelphia, United States – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

Philadelphia Pennsylvania’s Independence Hall is looked upon by many as the “birth place of the United States of America”.

Within these now historic walls, the Declaration of Independence was drafted, debated upon and finally signed in 1776.

The bell tower of Independence Hall held the original Liberty Bell which now resides in the Liberty Bell Center.

Construction of this American landmark started in 1732 in Georgian architectural style; twenty one years later it was finally finished.

Independence Hall has gone through many restorations over the years, and in 1948 the building’s interior was reverted back to its original appearance.

This monument is housed within the confines of the Independence National Historic Park and has been honored with the moniker of World Heritage Site.
