With Brian Dawkins inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday night, Eagles fans unsurprisingly flocked in droves to Canton, Ohio, to support one of the franchise's all-time greats.
Here are some glimpses of the green-jersey-filled scene in Canton:
There were plenty of No. 20 jerseys out early in the day.

The Super Bowl Theater in the Hall of Fame was a popular place.

But Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was not a popular man Saturday night.

The Eagles' fight song was the soundtrack of the night.

Near the end of Dawkins' passionate speech, he thanked all the Eagles fans who made the journey to Canton (see story).

Dawk finished by thanking the thousands of Eagles fans who are here:
"I have a good understanding that you don't have money just to waste so that means you spent your hard-earned money to come out here and celebrate with your boy! So thank you for loving me the way I love you!"— Reuben Frank (@RoobNBCS) August 5, 2018
