In honor of the Eagles winning the Super Bowl (!!!), here is a video of the most passionate fans and tailgaters you will ever meet. My coworker, Efraim (in the green glasses), tailgates every Eagles game – and brought his crew of friends, food, and fun to our tv station in Philly! I loved that they not only root for the home team, but they are conscious of food waste and do their best to make sure there is nothing left behind with the non-profit Tailgates Tackle Hunger.
From my post on phl17.com:
If you’ve ever tailgated at an Eagles game, you may have heard DJ music blasting, smelled fresh cheesesteaks, or heard bean bags being tossed during a game of cornhole. And that was all coming from Lot P! This group of tailgaters has grown over the years – from a few parking lot neighbors, to sometimes over 300 hundred Eagles fans that they call family. Original Lot P tailgater and chef, Andy Marin, talks to us about his Eagles bus and advice for cooking at tailgates and football parties. He also emphasizes the importance of not wasting food. Members of the non-profit, Tailgates Tackle Hunger, give great tips on how to make the right amount of food for your group, and what to do with leftovers after big parties. And we take a tour of the Wentz Upon a Time – an RV transformed into an “Eagles hotel.”
