Philadelphia gears up for a weekend of celebration ahead of the Super Bowl LVII clash between the Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs. The fans are ready to celebrate the victory of their favorite team. And the Philly authorities have adopted some ingenious methods to prevent hooliganism on Sunday.

Climbing the poles is quite a common celebration tradition for Philly fans. And Philadelphia police have the perfect solution to tackle that problem. And it’s nothing too technologically sophisticated. The authorities have resorted to good old grease.

Grease solves the Philly celebration issue

The police will apply biodegradable gear oil grease on lamp poles to prevent citizens from climbing them and endangering their health and safety. Besides the pole greasing, the rest of the precautionary protocols have not been released yet. And the authorities plan to keep it that way.

Things didn’t go down too well after the conference championship. For example, the public injury incident after the Eagles won the NFC Championship game against the San Francisco 49ers when a bus stop shelter collapsed after rowdy fans climbed on top.

City of Philadelphia spokesperson Joy Huertas spoke to NPR, about their strategy to overcome any avoidable hazards.

“For public safety reasons, the city is not disclosing if/when the poles will be greased. Also, protocols for the upcoming game are being evaluated by the police department, including the greasing of poles,” Huerta said.

A Philadelphia Eagles win can lead to even bigger problems for the police

After a recent championship victory for the Philadelphia Phillies of the MLB in the National Championship League Series over the San Diego Padres, the workers got an idea of what they could expect at the Super Bowl. However, pole climbing isn’t the only concern. There are also the ensemble parades blocking vital intersections, illegal fireworks, and uncontrolled and illegal public drinking.

Also, ahead of the NFC championship game this year, the city of brotherly love geared up by barricading certain buildings and poles to keep the crowd on the streets. The roads around the City Hall were also closed to civilians. And similar precautions are well on the schedule before the title game this Sunday.

However, luckily for the cops, this year’s Super Bowl is in Phoenix. So fans won’t get too tempted to climb the palm trees because of their humongous size. And the celebration is likely to stay on-ground. Can Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles best Mahomes’ Chiefs and heal a city otherwise ridden with poverty and crime?
