Philadelphia cops were seen recreating the Eagles’ famous ‘Tush Push’ in a hilarious moment at their Super Bowl parade on Friday.
More than a million supporters lined the streets of Philadelphia to celebrate the Eagles’ Super Bowl triumph in New Orleans, where they destroyed the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night to claim the franchise’s second championship.
And as fans swarmed the City of Brotherly Love for a wild party, even Philly police officers couldn’t resist getting involved in the fun.
A group of five cops were seen performing their very own Tush Push – the Eagles’ signature move where quarterback Jalen Hurts is pushed forward by teammates lined behind him to gain yardage – while patrolling in the road.
After a quick team talk, one officer crouched down with a ball in his hands while two of his colleagues did the same next to him, before he snapped it back to another behind him.
The officer playing the quarterback role then received the ball before being pushed on top of the apparent offensive line by a cop stood behind him.
