Things got off to an early start as fans from around the region traveled to Philadelphia for today’s Super Bowl victory parade. 4:30 a.m. and it’s lit:

A reported 3 million fans are in attendance:
From the City of Brotherly Love, where's there's a lot of love to go around today, with aprox. 3 Million Eagles fans lining the streets for the parade, we've got Canadiens & Flyers w/me @djpoulin20 @GlennSchiiler @PierreVLeBrun at 7pm on TSN 2.

And here are some of the best things we’ve seen…
There’s the pope:

Thankfully, we didn’t actually see this, just read about it:
there's a nude guy at the Eagles parade who has covered his body in cream cheese. "we covered the spread so now the spread's covered me!"

And there are many, many references to Nick Foles and the alleged length of his, well … you can figure it out:
Lots of “Big Dick Nick” chants here early at the #Eagles Super Bowl Parade.

Including this two young ladies with “Big D*ck Nick” tattoos on their lips:

ESPN’s Mike Golic reports that one fan broke his own finger in order to get out of work and attend the parade:

Early on the route, players and coaches actually hopped off the team bus to meet with fans…

…but Philly Police quickly put a stop to that as a safety issue:
Philly Police radio: "Car 14, advise those players to get back on the bus. Make them understand if they do this in Center City we're going to lose everything." #Eagles players hop off #EaglesParade bus at Broad & Pattison.

Some are wondering when one of the Philly fans will eat horse poop, like they did after the Super Bowl:

Well, with this could give them the munchies. Hopefully that stick to pretzels and cheese steaks:

Even the younger generation is involved, but safely at home:
Just because you couldn't make it out to the #EaglesParade today, doesn't mean you can't enjoy it! This little #Eagles fan is having a great time watching it right from home! (?: Instagram/slib3053) pic.twitter.com/LSggw1G5Pk
