The city of Philadelphia erupted in celebration, albeit amid calls for safety in the wake of a recent tragedy, after the Eagles toppled the mighty Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 59, 40-22.

It was a banner night for the Eagles on both sides of the ball, putting the Chiefs' quarterback Patrick Mahomes on his back six times and torching the schemes of vaunted defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo for nearly 350 yards. Kansas City was listless throughout the game, being shut out for nearly three quarters and potentially suffering from the curse of President Donald Trump picking them to win.

Philadelphia's mayor Cherelle Parker warned residents ahead of the game not to climb structures if the Eagles won after an 18-year-old Temple University student died after falling from a pole while celebrating the team's victory in the NFC Championship game − according to WTXF.

"Just don't climb anything, that's the Golden Rule," Parker said at a press conference.

Here's a look at the celebrations in Philadelphia after Super Bowl 59.
