With the big celebration of the Eagles' Super Bowl victory Sunday night, many fans took to the streets to celebrate. While most of the celebrating was under control, some of the fans decided to cause a bit of mayhem in the streets of Philadelphia. The window's at Macy's located on Market Street were smashed. Luckily, crews were able to board up the broken windows and clear out the broken glass by the morning. Fans were also seen climbing poles as well as the gate outside of City Hall. Some fans even went as far as pulling the poles out of the ground. A car was also flipped onto it's driver's side on Broad and Walnut Streets. Also, at the Ritz Carlton, many fans climbed on top of the awning which caused it to collapse. The mayor's office stated that three arrest swere made overnight, but Philadelphia Police have not released an officials number of the arrests.
