ST. LOUIS – Fans in St. Louis were all in—celebrating across the city, from small businesses to Ballpark Village. St. Louis was electric as football fans packed restaurants and bars, anxiously watching the Eagles and Chiefs battle in Super Bowl LIX.
At Syberg’s, families, friends, and coworkers gathered to enjoy food, drinks, and football. Fans rocked jerseys—some for their teams, others just for the love of the game—while waitresses showed their Chiefs’ pride.
Over at Ballpark Village, hundreds packed the venue, watching on the big screen and jamming to St. Louis anthems like “Ride Wit Me” before kickoff. Some even pulled in a Chiefs-themed hot tub filled with skeletons representing the players, bringing the energy to another level. Both Chiefs and Eagles fans were in attendance for the big celebration!
“It will be to stop a dynasty. To be the ones to stop the dynasty and to see the second ring that the Eagles ever won! That’ll be huge for me,” Eagles fan John Nunn said.
Emotions are running high with the Chiefs chasing a three-peat and Eagles fans hoping for their second title.
“First time in almost 60 years; I mean, our generation deserves to see a three-peat. This is the best shot to have it for whoever knows how long,” Chiefs fan Keelan Borchers said.
But with the Eagles leading 24-0 at halftime, Chiefs fans grew silent. Some, too emotional to talk on camera, said they still had hope for a comeback. After all, the Chiefs had pulled off miracles before this season.
A touchdown in the third quarter briefly reignited that hope, but the Eagles struck again in the fourth. Many Chiefs fans started heading for the exits late in the fourth. As the clock hit zero, Eagles fans erupted in jubilation, dancing and singing as their team took home the Lombardi Trophy.
“It’s great! Second time we won it! We were fighting it the three years! It’s a good feeling. It’s a good feeling, really!” Eagles fan Joshua M. said.
The Chiefs fans who stayed until the bitter end were left stunned.
“It was unexpected; very, very unexpected. From the jump, it was just like, ‘What was going on?’” Chiefs fan Chris Henry said. “I thought we had the script. I thought we knew the script. It’s just a very sad day to be a Chiefs fan.”
Despite the outcome, St. Louis came together for a night filled with passion, energy, and love of football.
