Eagles fans find loophole for 12-hour tailgate before game vs. Giants
Philadelphia Eagles fans wasted no time getting the tailgate party started ahead of Saturday's divisional-round game against the New York Giants.
While the parking lots at Lincoln Financial Field don't open until 4 p.m. ET for the Eagles-Giants matchup, fans could arrive at 8 a.m. if they purchased tickets to Saturday's National League Lacrosse game between the Philadelphia Wings and the Toronto Rock.
#ItsAPhillyThing: Birds fans found a way to hack the tailgate. The lots don’t open until 4pm for tonight’s @Eagles game. BUT they open at 8am for the @NLLwings 1pm lacrosse game.
