Eagles fans were pissed before Super Bowl 57 even started. Of all the times for there to be an internet and cable outage, Super Bowl Sunday is arguably the worst.

That certainly happened for Philadelphia fans. In the hours leading up to Super Bowl LVII between the Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, a massive outage hit Comcast.

It was said that power wasn’t expected to come back until 30 minutes before kickoff, leading to much frustration from Eagles fans.

Aside from the outage, city officials have been seen greasing light poles in downtown Philadelphia to prevent fans from climbing them just in case the team won the Super Bowl. As we saw after the NFC Championship game, that method did not work at all.

The madness has already begun Sunday, as several Eagles fans were videoed flipping a car over in the street. It could be a long night in Philadelphia.
