Mayhem broke out in the City of Brotherly Love last night following the Philadelphia Eagles' narrow Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.<br /><br />Signs of unrest surfaced almost immediately after the team's 38-35 defeat Sunday night - with disgruntled fans swarming City Hall and clashing with cops that had been stationed throughout the city in case of such an outcome.<br /><br />Police scanner audio after 10:30 pm suggested police had made multiple arrests, as citizens were seen scaling lampposts, chanting 'f*** the Chiefs', and hurling glass bottles throughout the city's Downtown neighborhood.<br /><br />Footage circulating on social media also shows several residents lighting fireworks, with others egging on armed SWAT teams tasked with keeping the peace.<br /><br />In one shocking clip, a group of Philadelphians has seen lighting fireworks, with some reports indicating the explosives are being thrown at officers.<br /><br />Cops were using tear gas to deter any further disruptions, after a crushing defeat highlighted by game-altering penalties.<br /><br />The loss is compounded by the fact the city's baseball team, the Phillies, similarly crashed out of the World Series just a few months ago.<br /><br />Heartbroken Eagles fans poured into the city's streets after the game last night.<br /><br />With drum bands continuing the march and fireworks exploding overhead, some stayed in high spirits, reciting team chants.<br /><br />Videos showed some supporters leading the city towards a riot, climbing up traffic lights and over city infrastructure.<br /><br />As others drink from large bottles, one man is seen diving from a bus station to surf the large crowds below.<br /><br />Lines of police in riot gear were swept in to stabilize the situation and protect buildings as the crowds started to grow desperately out of hand.<br /><br />Eagles fans are then filmed shuffling forwards in a mob, cursing the victorious Chiefs and drinking.<br /><br />Around 11 pm, a large police presence formed and deployed smoke bombs to defuse the crowds and send people home.<br /><br />But police scanner audio suggests multiple arrests had already been made. <br /><br />Cops are photographed wielding riot shields and batons for crowd control.<br /><br />In 2018, authorities famously slathered grease onto posts around the city when the Eagles beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl in an attempt to stop fans from climbing them. <br /><br />Before the game started, a large crowd of Eagles fans was seen tipping a car on a side street in North Philadelphia.<br /><br />A man is filmed getting on top of the overturned car with arms spread in triumph while a mob of supporters in green surrounds the car.<br /><br />The Chiefs' win on Sunday was anything but a given.
