London calling for Eagles fans with cheesesteaks, unique Philly flavor
While the Eagles kept a tight schedule, fans turned London into a sea of green before facing Jacksonville.
London will welcome the Eagles for a game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 11 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The team will spend around 36 hours in London, visiting historical sites like Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace, while fans enjoy the city's unique charm. A Philadelphia Eagles-themed bar called Passyunk Avenue, inspired by Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia, opened in London.
Passyunk Avenue offers cheesesteaks, merchandise and a festive atmosphere for Eagles supporters. Despite a tough start to the season, with injuries to key players and trades, local fans remain optimistic and excited for their team's visit. The Eagles, led by coach Nick Sirianni, aim to use this trip to practice and prepare for their upcoming game against the Carolina Panthers on October 18.
While the team tries to maintain normal routines, fans are eager to experience the unique blend of culture and Eagles fandom in London.
