Philadelphia officials are urging fans to keep celebrations on the ground this weekend as the city prepares for a massive influx of people for the NFC Championship game between the Eagles and the Commanders on Sunday. Mayor Cherelle Parker and Managing Director Adam Thiel issued a warning on Thursday, asking fans to be mindful of public infrastructure, particularly light poles, during any potential celebrations.
The city has been working tirelessly to ensure the safety, cleanliness, and readiness of streets like South Broad Street and City Hall, anticipating heavy foot traffic. Meanwhile, excitement is building in Philadelphia, with fans and businesses gearing up for the big game. Bars and restaurants, like the Jug Handle Inn in Cinnaminson, New Jersey, are stocking up and preparing for packed crowds. Natalia Walker, the bar manager, explained that they are taking extra steps to ensure they can handle the surge in customers, including prepping the kitchen and securing ample supplies. The anticipation has even sparked some humorous incidents, such as the case of the Bayou Bar & Grill in Manayunk. Joe Abruzzo, the owner, was surprised to find his establishment listed as a 'Commanders bar' on the team's website, leading to numerous calls from confused patrons. Abruzzo, a die-hard Eagles fan, vehemently denies any affiliation with the opposing team and even joked about barring Commanders fans from his establishment
