The Philadelphia fan celebrated on Sunday night, making an impromptu appearance on ‘NFL GameDay’ and becoming a viral moment of the night after being denied on stage for post-game celebrations.
Bradley Cooper wasn’t the only one celebrating the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday night.
Eagles fan Kevin Hart, another Philadelphia native, was seen during the presentation of the Vince Lombardi trophy speaking to security as the trophy was being carried up to the podium. It’s unclear what they were discussing.
Eagles fan Kevin Hart, another Philadelphia native, was seen during the presentation of the Vince Lombardi trophy speaking to security as the trophy was being carried up to the podium. It’s unclear what they were discussing.
Later, he popped up on NFL Network’s NFL GameDay, where he noted that he had “started the celebration early” by drinking and even dropped the F-bomb.
His biggest moment of the night, however, came when the movie star tried to join the trophy celebrations on the field after the Eagles defeated the Patriots — but was denied. As Eagles players were heading on stage to accept the Vince Lombardi Trophy, Hart was seen on camera being denied access by a security guard.
After the footage had gone viral, an admittedly tipsy Hart took to social media to offer an explanation.
“To all the kids out there I just want to say — don’t drink,” he began. “When alcohol is in your system you do dumb stuff. Me trying to go on stage with the trophy was definitely in the top two stupidest things I’ve ever done but who cares? The Eagles won the Super Bowl!”
He continued, “Yeah I’m still a little tipsy, but the world can kiss my ass. My wife was the first one to say ‘babe don’t go up there.’ … It didn’t work out good.”
He said the guard told him, “Kevin Hart, I know who you are but you can’t be up here.”
