Fans were engaging in the usual drunken celebration rituals–you know, climbing street lights, lighting fires in the streets, flipping cars, rioting and looting. Then there was some more outrageous activity that fans are likely regretting this morning.

Hopefully nobody was seriously injured during the post-game celebrations. Although it looks like at least a few fans did their best to injure themselves.

Stay safe out there in Philly, everyone, if there’s anything left of the city that set itself on fire last night.
