The Eagles' party at Lincoln Financial Field to celebrate their Super Bowl win and open the 2018 NFL season might has been interrupted by Mother Nature.
Severe weather is closing in on Linc ahead of the Eagles' regular-season opener against the Atlanta Falcons.
Small, but heavy thunderstorm approaching South Philly & The Linc. Lightning, heavy rain and gusty winds- but will be brief! #eagles #philly #nfl #firstalertwx pic.twitter.com/EHhRAwEWLJ— Violeta Yas (@YasT62) September 6, 2018
Players and fans weren't the only ones upset by the delay.
Unbelievable. We've got a weather delay here at The Linc. This crowd was so fired up and now we're not sure what time the game is going to start. But whenever we kickoff they will be ready. Shooting for 8:55 now— Tony Dungy (@TonyDungy) September 6, 2018
