They may have been devoid of sleep, but not of life!

Some of the fans we spoke to only spent a few hours in New Orleans.

"There and back in 24-hours, less than," one fan said.

Despite being more than 1,220 miles away, the fans said it felt like a home game.

"It was like a home field advantage. There were barely -- I mean, there were Chiefs fans but it felt like a home field advantage," said one returning fan.

"It was an awesome game. I lost my voice form screaming so loud," said another. "We had so many Eagles fans there, it was just an epic experience!"

"Just when you thought it was awesome, it just got better," another fan added.

Celebration cleanup underway

Cleanup is underway along Broad and Market streets after Eagles fans swarmed Center City Philadelphia following the big win!

Officers moved in to clear the throngs of people, but like any good party, no one wanted to go home.

It was a hard party to break up and took hours.

Even as the city sweeps and trash trucks moved in, revelers jump on top.

Police say a linen truck was stolen at some point during the night from the Loews hotel and used to barricade Market Street. The thieves apparently dumped all the linens onto the street and set them ablaze.

Multiple fires were also set in dumpsters and light poles came down.

A text alert went out to phones around 3:15 a.m. on Monday, ordering crowds to disperse.
