*In an exuberant show of unity and sportsmanship, Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker turned a recent embarrassing moment into an opportunity for connection and community spirit.
On Thursday, January 23, 2025, at the city’s LOVE Park, Parker energized the crowd of eager Philadelphia Eagles fans, much to the excitement of those gathered, as she redeemed herself from a previous blunder where she famously misspelled the team’s name.
The saga began days earlier during a press conference intended to update the public on snow preparation, overshadowed by Parker’s comical error. As she attempted to rally support for the Eagles ahead of their snowy playoff game against the Los Angeles Rams, Parker couldn’t quite get the spelling right as she shouted, “E-L-G-S-E-S, Eagles!”
The clip of her boo-boo quickly went viral, accumulating views and laughs across social media platforms.

Addressing an energizing crowd at LOVE Park just before the Eagles’ NFC Championship Game with the Washington Commanders, Parker cheekily acknowledged the viral incident.
“Now listen, your mayor went out there and got in trouble ya’ll,” she said, playfully reminding the audience of her moments of confusion. “We went viiirraaalll!”
In a heartfelt plea to the fans, Parker asked, “Teach your mayor, how do we spell Eagles?” As the crowd erupted in unison with the correct cheer—“E-A-G-L-E-S, Eagles!”—she joined in, a joyful sound of redemption echoing in the park.
With Eagles mascot Swoop by her side, she reveled in the demonstration of collective spirit.

During a brief chat with NBC10 after her heartfelt performance, Parker remarked on turning the embarrassing moment into a positive one.
“Hey listen, if they didn’t know who the mayor of Philadelphia was, they sure do now,” she quipped, noting that she remains proud of her Eagles fandom. “We’re gonna do everything that we possibly can to cheer our Birds on to victory,” she assured her fellow fans.
As Philadelphia gears up for the high-stakes NFC Championship Game, Parker’s spirited interaction with the Eagles faithful showcases the unique blend of politics and sportsmanship alive in the City of Brotherly Love.
