Shocking moment Eagles fans cause chaos before Super Bowl had even started

Watch the shocking moment Eagles fans caused chaos ahead of the Super Bowl.

Last night's Super Bowl was one of the most closely contested in years, with Kansas City Chiefs coming out on top against the Philadelphia Eagles.

While it was very eventful on the pitch, including Rihanna's long-awaited comeback for the halftime show, things had already kicked off prior to the start of the game.

In Philadelphia, many miles away from the final in Arizona, Eagles fans caused a bit of chaos in the buildup to the Super Bowl.

Footage of them completely flipping over a parked car has been circulating on social media in truly shocking scenes.

In the footage, a massive crowd of Eagles fans pack a Philadelphia street, as a bunch of them try to tip the car over with the rest watching.

Within seconds, the fans manage to flip the poor car on its side, with the rest of the crowd going berserk.

Multiple fans then jump on top of the upside-down car, with the whole crowd chanting 'f*** the Chiefs'.

Unfortunately, this trouble pre-match was not the only trouble that took place in Philadelphia during the Super Bowl weekend.

After the Chiefs defeated the Eagles, mayhem broke out as disgruntled fans clashed with cops that were stationed throughout the city during the Super Bowl in case something like this happened.

In footage circulating on social media, fans can be seen scaling lampposts, chanting about the Chiefs, and dangerously hurling glass bottles.

Footage also shows several fans setting out fireworks, while others unwisely tease an armed SWAT team.

Police were also seen trying to minimise disruption in the downtown part of the city.

The Super Bowl itself was actually a very entertaining one in Arizona, one that has been described as the 'best Super Bowl ever' from some.

In what was once of the tensest games in recent memory, Patrick Mahomes overcame a niggling injury to lead his side to victory 38 to 35.

Fans watching at home took to social media to praise both teams for putting on such an entertaining show.

One person said: "What a game! Best Super Bowl in years. Congratulations to the Chiefs, well played Eagles."

A second added: "An incredible game by two of the best quarterbacks in football."

Meanwhile, a third remarked: "7 combined touchdowns. This is what the #SuperBowl is about."
