After suffering through 42 years with no hardware, the Capitals finally hoisted the Stanley Cup. Fans in Washington D.C. reacted accordingly.
The Eagles were already champions. They just never won a Super Bowl until this year. Caps fans endured year after year of playoff tears and disappointment before reaching the promised land. This championship meant more.
From being the butt of jokes to clowning the rest of the NFL—the Eagles are finally Super Bowl champions. NFL Championships before the merger are nice, but this one is special.
Generations of Eagles fans crying and flooding the streets of Philadelphia will be an enduring image. Greased poles be damned, Eagles fans celebrated like no other fandom can.
