A little hydraulic fluid isn't going to keep Eagles fans, thrilled with their team's first Super Bowl victory, from scaling light poles.

CBS Philly reports that in Center City, some rowdy revelers flipped over a car, while others jumped from the Ritz Carlton's awning. Mayor Jim Kenney said the city has "dreamed" of the day it could finally celebrate an Eagles victory, but he urged fans to "celebrate in a way that is safe and respectful to everyone from neighbors to strangers. Go forth and celebrate, but do so in a way that will make Philadelphia shine." Catherine Garcia
