Some of the greatest moments of the group have come in recent years. For the Eagles’ Super Bowl LII victory, Tampdelphia hosted a watch party at a local hotel, where they opened the walls to three ballrooms, had three large projectors, and two hot buffet lines.<\/p>\n

There were around 550 people in attendance, and Parone emceed the event wearing a tuxedo and Kelly Green baseball hat.<\/p>\n

“I said, ‘Welcome to the Eagles’ Super Bowl,’ and I got a standing ovation,” Parone said. “I said, ‘These are my people.'”<\/p>\n

What started as a local gathering with a few people in 1994 has now turned into a way of life for some Philadelphia fans in Tampa Bay. The Tampadelphia Facebook group has more than 4,000 followers, and 700 Eagles fans attended the Super Bowl LIX watch party.<\/p>\n

With the Eagles in town for a Week 4 matchup against the Buccaneers, there will be some extra juice at Tampadelphia. There will be an event at Roadhouse Grill on Saturday from noon to 7 PM<\/a>. Parone said he’s not going to the game because of the heat, but he certainly won’t be alone on Sunday.<\/p>\n

“When you go through life and you go to work every day, every week, every month, every year, and you bust your [butt], you’ve got your projects, you’ve got a bunch of pressures,” Parone said, “… by Sunday, just give me three hours to hide, get something good to eat and drink, and watch my team. And that is where I come in. That’s what Tampadelphia is all about. Tampadelphia doesn’t exist. Where the group is is Tampadelphia.” \u2014 Written by Matt Ryan<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Some of the greatest moments of the group have come in recent years.
