Footage circulating on social media also shows several residents lighting fireworks, with others egging on armed SWAT teams tasked with keeping the piece.

How many Wawas got cleaned out?
Any excuse too …
They would have rioted even if they WON!
Sports ball morons.

I am glad they lost. They voted in a Fetterman. Kinda. Rotten RAT city.
Just like the kid kicking, flailing away on the floor, crying and screaming because he didn’t get his way
I’m really hoping some of them “found out”.
“The beatings will continue until moral improves” we need more of this
“keeping the piece”?
Philadelphia, the birthplace of the Republic.
Now decending into chaos, another sign of the Republic’s death throes.
Didn’t they cover the spread? That should have satisfied.
Too bad you can’t just truck in extra points at the final whistle, maybe have some dead people rush for a touchdown?
This old Eagles fan just went to bed.Fan since the 40s.
No justice. No chiefs.
Yep. I told my wife yesterday no matter what happens in the game there’s gonna be violence in killadelphia......the city of brotherly shove.
Buncha soccer hooligans…
and in MY country, too.
Imagine if the Eagles had won...
Wouldn’t have been a Wawa left untouched in 3 states.
Terrible call to end a super bowl. Rediculous playback in slow motion of a ball that was uncatchable.
