Issued a winter advisory until 10 00 this evening because initially this is going to start as snow in these counties here. It will transition over to a wintry mix, sleet and freezing rain and eventually go over to rain as some milder air works its way into the area. As of now temperatures are below the freezing mark of 32. Bethlehem 32, lake harmony 22. Colder stuff out here to the west, but numbers are above freezing south and east thats part of the wn why theres no advisory for new jersey and delaware. As we take a look at future tracker here, the snow line will continue to lift to the north as the day wears on. This is just a cold rain for the immediate philadelphia area today. Accuweather says cloudy and damp this afternoon with rain developing around midday and a high of 44. Ill have much more on this with the timing and the accuweather 7day forecast all coming up in about 10 minutes. Thank you. It is finally super bowl sunday. The eagles will take the field in about nine and a half hours. The birds have not let their underdog status indim tate them all season long. Yesterday the team got a feel for the graph. The owner was with them on the side line now marked with the eagles logo. We have Live Team Coverage of the eagles in super bowl lii. Brian taff and Sharrie Williams are at the mall america, Ducis Rodgers and jamie apody are at u. S. Bank stadium. Here at home the massive security effort and Jeannette Reyes is following the fan pandemonium. Up close and personal the day weve all been waiting for, finally here. You said it, guys. Good morning, from minnesota. This is the moment weve been waiting for for so long to cap off this memorable season. All we need now, one more win. Lets get that win later today. We are here inside the mall of america. Its 8 00 a. M. Central time so its empty now. That will not be the case later on. This is where fans will arrive later on to go through the screening process before those who are lucky enough to have a ticket to super bowl lii board a train to go from here to u. S. Bank state yumd. Its been hopping all week that includes last night. Eagles pride could be seen as the green and white is all over the twin cities. The love for this team could also be heard as fiancee rupted time and time again in that eagles chant. This is what they traveled here for. To take in the excitement of being at a super bowl. Some unique stories as to some of these people fell in love with the eagles. We spoke with one man whose fandom goes back to the 1940s and another whos been following the team since the days of Franklin Field. My first eagles game i ever went to was the last game at the vet and now my second game ive ever gone to is the super bowl here. So yeah. Once in a lifetime. Since 1940. The first time i saw was 1942. 1942 was your first game . Yeah. Green bay packers playing the eagles. Reporter its just so special to those who have traveled here. You hear these stories. Only two games, the super bowl being one of them. The only gentleman back to the 1940s. Its just great to see their faces, the excitement of them being here. And today its gate day. Were looking to add to those history books today. For so many fans this is not just the end of a story book season. Its a milestone of a lifetime of fandom and were all relishing it here in minnesota. Im brian taff, well see you guys later today for now well send it back to the studio. Generations of eagles fans watching tonight. Lets go now to jamie apody and Ducis Rodgers. They are live outside u. S. Bank stadium in minneapolis. Its cold but the fans are on fire . Reporter yes, and this team is on fire as well. Red hot in that nfc championship game against the vikings. Super bowl is finally here. For right now, ducis, its 5, feels like 22. Thats why im using all those hot words. I know. The eagles are getting set for this game. Its finally here. I feel like weve waited forever for this day to come. And you know, we all know about the whole underdog thing, we know about the patriots and their dynasty. The bottom line is this. This team has a Mutual Respect for one another and its going to be a great game tonight. The eagles have made it a point to keep things light this week, from dancing to wrestling masks. This team has been focused on fun. But bring up tom brady and the patriots, that mood changes quickly. Theyve done a lot of great things. Theyre not here by mistake, were not here by mistake. If we make this whole thing about the patriots the birds are not intimidated theyre not in awe. Instead they look at the patriots and see a model for what they would like to become some day, a dynasty and this is the first step. Brady is gone eight out of 16 years playing for the super bowl. You cant even comprehend those numbers. That feeling of respect is mutual. Even with his five super bowl rings, tom brady knows. Its not going to be easy we all have to have the mentality were going to have to work for it. Everybody has to play well. This isnt a game where we can have one group thats not really playing as well as theyre capable. Reporter at last check the eagles were 4. 5 underdogs for super bowl lii. Of course brady told me theyre no underdogs, they were 13 and 1 coming into this. Live outside u. S. Bank stadium and we havent frozen yet. Hes Ducis Rodgers, im jamie apody at the super bowl. Channel 6 action news. Its going to be good. 9 07 your time back here at home bob brooks is in center city, philadelphia this morning. The city is ready for any celebrations that might occur following the game, right . Reporter Police Commissioner richard ross said earlier this week, they are ready for anything that could happen. And i know a lot of people, theyve been waiting their whole lives for this moment for when the birds win this game. So just ask that when you do come out here and celebrate, dont cause any trouble. These were the massive crowds after the nfc championship game. As expected they formed in notorious city hot spots. With an eagles win tonight, police say these crowds are going to be much bigger. Earlier this week Police Commissioner richard ross gave a clear message to those think about doing more than just celebrating. Clearly assault, destruction of property will be dealt with swiftly. Were going to move in and handle those situations. Reporter but in the same breath, police are encouraging celebration. After all, a win tonight in the super bowl will be the first for the city and no one wants to put a stop to soaking in the moment. We are about business but we are still about business of allowing people to celebrate as long as its done peacefully. The commissioner wouldnt go into too many details of what the plan is to keep order, but he did say they will not be greasing poles. Instead he says they have another plan. We spoke with a local Jiu Jitsu Club. I dont want any rocks thrown, cars flipped over. I hope everybody has a good time with it, but i dont want anybody making too much damage. Reporter also lets talk parking restrictions. Theyre going into effect at 2 00 p. M. Today and will be in effect until tomorrow at 3 00 a. M. Broad street is lined with barriers ready to be put out in place. There will be no parking from arch to pine and also on broad street from dickenson to oregon avenue. There is no parking on either side of broad street and median parking as well. You can see behind me here at city hall, some of these steel barriers have already been put in place. Getting ready again those restrictions start at 2 00 p. M. If you remember last sunny had my green turtle neck on. Ive got it on again today. The birds killed the vikings two weeks ago and now i think its lucky so im going to wear it on game day. Bob brooks, channel 6 action news. Back to you guys. If they win tonight, it is all thanks to you. Lets go over to Jeannette Reyes. Shes live in the citys mayfair section. To say fans are ready and pumped for this game is an understatement. Reporter theyve been ready since 5 00 this morning. They were hearing in the back right behind me this morning. But this is the place to be. Aside from minneapolis, you want to be here. Right near frankford and cottman as we know its a hot spot. Wear green before you step inside of here. It is going to be packed really throughout the day especially as we get closer to kickoff later on this evening. The manager told me last time a couple of weeks ago when we won against the vikings in a blowout game, the crowds did behave and tonight were expecting the same thing. Double the profit, double the numbers in terms of foot traffic. Whats your prediction for the game tonight . 2414 philadelphia. Reporter okay. And why are you so confident . I tell you what. Like everybody is saying, theyre such an underdog and they are underdogs they come out and theyre going to take a bite out of bradys butt. Reporter and before i send it back to you guys, i want to show you someone here who got something that is pretty hard to come my whole life, 58 years. Were hearing from a true fan there. If theres anywhere you want to be tonight, you dont want to be in the madness, you can watch from the window here. Were hoping youll tune in tonight and go eagles. Back to you guys.

This is green. Show them that makeup bag. The other one on the side. The makeup thing there. Never mind. Its green. You see right there on the end table there . Theres a live view here looking from our center thats what it is. That was my fault, gray. As we look behind me, you can see the clouds are lowering and thickening all in advance of the next system that were watching here. The radar starting to pick up some moisture just to the west of the philadelphia area now and it is falling in the form of snow. You see the shades of gray and white showing up across Lancaster County just north of the masondixon line, everything moving to the northeast at about 1015 miles per hour. Because of that the National Weather service has issued a Winter Weather advisory for our far western counties. It will begin to snow at the on set and go over to rain as the afternoon wears on. Minor accumulations expected in our far western counties but perhaps just enough to create some slick spots out there. Thats part of the reason why the advisory was issued. Close to freezing now north and west. Poconos its really cold up there, its only 22. A blanket of snow out to the west. All of this pushing off to the northeast. So in time some milder air from both the chesapeake and delaware bays will flood the area and whatever snow you are seeing should quickly go over to rain as this model is starting to show here by midday. Heres the rainsnow line south of lancaster. It lifts all the way up to the Lehigh Valley by this afternoon. Its a cold rain. Still snowing in the poconos becomes steady and heavy as the Late Afternoon and evening wears on. Especially around halftime. This is a downpour taking place right through the heart of the delaware valley. Right around 11 00 everything should start to end from west to east 9 30 to 11 00. At that point temperatures are starting to fall. Still dealing with visibility issues at that point. The fog tracker showing visibility ranges 13 miles. Rain begins right around midday in the immediate philadelphia area. Briefly starting as snow. Heavy rain this evening, it all ends between 9 30 to 11 00 from west to east. Upper 30s north and west, low to mid 40s south and east. Millville getting close to 50, philadelphia 44, cape may 48. And overnight tonight evening rain some of this is going to be heavy, continuing until about 9 30 or so, and temperatures crashing first thing tomorrow morning so a lot of these numbers are right around 6 00 or 7 00 a. M. Tomorrow morning. Millville 32, tomorrow morning we will have wind chills in the Single Digits and teens. Bundle up, old man winter is making a comeback here. The exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, ponding on the roads expected, 44 tomorrow breezy and cold 34. The next system arrives on wednesday. More rain for us and 45. Nydia . All right, chris thank you. Early this morning the action cam was outside the lit brothers building at 7th and market streets in old city. As we can see the building that opened as a moderately priced Department Store in 1891 has become the latest structure to go green. The slogan was a great store for a great city. Now theyre rooting for a great team. Welcome back. It is 9 22. 36 degrees. Sky 6hd taking a live look from our city hall camera at 15th and jfk. Lots of rain and a little snow on this super bowl sunday so be aware as you head out to your super bowl parties today. Well, they say the snow must go on. Doylestown native pink says she will not let the flu stop her from singing her National Anthem from singing at the super bowl. She posted this picture on social media rehearsing the anthem. She said her children gave her the virus but she said it is one of her biggest honors of her life so she plans to soldier through the illness. You will no doubt be so at a party. A new study finds that the average american will consume 2400 calories during a Super Bowl Party. Thats hey a days worth of food. 1. 2 billion chicken wings will be consumed alone. Pizza is considered a musthave on super bowl sunday. 11 Million Pounds of chips and 4 Million Pounds of pretzels. And if youre hosting a Super Bowl Party today, you need to take some steps to avoid a food safety penalty. That food is delicious when its fresh but when its left out for several hours it could become very dangerous. When youre cooking those wings, make sure they are not overcrowded, that could cause some of them to be undercooked. They should be cooked to a temperature of 165 degrees. And remember to keep hot food hot, the cold food cold. Perishable foods should be left out longer than two hours should be tossed and replenished with fresh food. Since super bowl parties tend to be all day affairs putting out food in small batches a good idea. At halftime do a check on any food that may be replaced. Were back after this. According to the largest seller of licensed gear, more merchandise has been sold for the eagles and patriots than any of the past seven super bowl games. You might say eagles fans are the most loyal thats because they have purchased 50 more gear than Seattle Seahawks fans did which was the previous record. It will be plenty of trash talking during the game at one home in bucks county. In fact the trash talking has already been nonstop at the smith home. Thats because mike is a patriots fan, his wife is a diehard eagles fan and the children are split. Todays game all boils down to one thing for the family, bragging rights. I wanted to do if the eagles won, i wanted to get an eagles tattoo and she wanted to get a patriots tattoo but shes not having that. The smiths have decided whoever loses have to wear the winning teams jersey every sunday during the next football season. I like that better than the tattoo. I think mom is correct on this one. 9 27. Theres still much more to come on this sunday edition of action news. The eagles underdog help to get the Party Started for some young ters. The mayor says hes not allowing anything to jinx this game. How hes trying to help the birds to a win. Plus meteorologist chris sowers will have your super bowl sunday sluf 7day forecast when the news continues. Headed to the super bowl. A group of eagles fans leave bright and early so they can catch the eagles take on the patriots in person. Plus a perfectly solution r delicious centerpiece. Bakeries working overtime to help you cheer on the eagles. And we are tracking some rain, and yes some possible snow in areas as you head out for your birds celebration. Meteorologist chris sowers with those accuweather details. Snow . Lets get you to Storm Tracker 6. Were zoomed into Lancaster County. I was just looking at observations. The only two areas that are reporting any kind of snowfall are harrisburg and york. It wouldnt surprise me if some location here in Lancaster County, in particular lancaster, oxford, seeing a few flurries but this is very, very light stuff and 80 is not even reaching the ground. The wider view shows moisture to the west. In time what happens air off the atlantic pushing inland and it will quickly go over to rain. You can see it actually advancing to the west already over the last couple of frames. See this over the last 15, 25 minutes you can see it already starting. So it will be very, very brief if you do pick up that snow west of philadelphia. Then its just a cold rain for most of the storm here. So what to expect from the poconos, youll see snow, 24 inches before mixing over to sleet and freezing rain late this afternoon and evening. The Lehigh Valley far north west suburbs, it will start out as snow for a brief period of time, a coating to an inch and that goes over to rain. And for the i95 metro area, its a cold rain. Your impact scale looks like this. Its quiet around morning and right around lunchtime the first drops begin in philadelphia and from that point on it is a heavy, soaking and driving rain. And tomorrow morning this is what greets you. Wind chills in the Single Digits as the cold air starts wrapping in again. By 8 00 a. M. Tomorrow morning, 5 below with the wind in the poconos, 7 in read, 9 in lancaster and 15 degrees in philadelphia. Ill have much more coming up in just a few minutes. Guys . Thank you for the update. Super bowl sunday has finally arrived. Its the day eagles fans have been waiting for and dreamed about for a long time. Now the birds and their fans are in minneapolis where they will face the new England Patriots in just hours hoping for their first super bowl win and hoping to stop tom brady from what will be his sixth. It will be a bonechilling 2 degrees at game time, but fortunately for birds fans who made the trip, it is a covered stadium so they will be nice and toasty as they cheer on the eagles hopefully to their first super bowl win in franchise history. And this is what they will bring home if they win tonight. Itsz named in honor of the famed nfl coach who led the Green Bay Packers to victory in the first two super bowl games. This may well have bin the longer two weeks of their life. Those fans can barely wait for kickoff. Eagles eagles the philadelphia auto show turning into one giant pep rally. You dont have to go far to find fans willing to break out into a spontaneous fight song. They say they have had a tough time focusing on anything but eagles the last two weeks. Theyre ready for it. Im ready for the big game. Were all very excited. Very anxious. Game day finally here. Many eagles fans tell action news that although it would be great seeing them playing in the super bowl in person, they also want to be right here at home when the sem celebration begins after. Fans are picking up lastminute things. Trish hartman is live in west berlin. People have been coming in all day long for those goodies. Reporter thats right. All morning its been packed in here and we are standing in front of one of the busiest places in the Zallies Shoprite right now. People are waiting for their meats and their party trays.

Reporter keeps everybody fueled up and excited. Absolutely. Just need to pick up some trays, some cookies and stuff to get ready. And very excited. Reporter customers, some dressed to the nines, started streaming into Zallies Shoprite in west berlin, new jersey shortly after opening after 6 00 a. M. This will be a busy day for lastminute shoppers and hundreds of employees who are working hard to keep the store stocked and clean. But managers say its well worth it. Over the past several weeks business has been up about 10 . Now theyre in the final stretch. Business has been tremendous. Were prepared. We put extra staff o were working throughout the night. Business has been tremendous and we really picked up because of the super bowl. Been prepping for over a couple of weeks. Its like christmas time. Thats what we planned on. Its probably going to be a little busier. This store is open until 11 00 p. M. But managers expect the peek busy time around 11 00 a. M. If you still need to pick up the last couple of things, they say the sooner, the better. Trish hartman, channel 6 action news. Procrastinate no more. The action cam was at Philadelphia International airport this morning and the green legion boarded a plane for minneapolis. The 160 members of the green legion are among the birds most faithful followers. They fly to eagles away games and certainly this is not one they would miss. In 1960, i was at Franklin Field with my dad and my uncle. 58 years later im taking my best friend, his two kids, my daughter and my nephew and were all going to be there to watch the eagles win in minneapolis.

A house fire in the logan section of philadelphia has injured one person. The action cam was at the scene.

The one point i want to stress, please take it easy on the roads later on. That rain is going to be coming down at a pretty good clip. Theres going to be a lot of ponding on the roads and the visibility will drop off because low level fog and clouds will settle in. Take it easy on the roads to get to our discontinuation safely. We do have moisture out here to the west, most of the philadelphia area already above the magic number of 32 and well continue to climb during the afternoon hours. You can see the light snow flying out here to the west. The park is much worse than the bite. 60 of this not even reaching the ground. Some locations are and we are expecting to see this moisture overspread the area from southwest to northeast over the next few hours. Initially over philadelphia it may start as snow but it will quickly go over to rain as that milder ocean air starts to work its way inland. Heres the closeup by lunchtime, maybe some light snow flying in lancaster, berks and lehigh, the poconos. But this rainsnow line lifts way to the north during the mid afternoon hours. By 4 00 its through the Lehigh Valley and up into the poconos. Everybody else will be seeing cold rain which will be heavy and steady. Look at the oranges thats rain coming down in sheets.

Tomorrow morning well wake up to numbers in the 20s. Wind chills in the Single Digits and teens. Snowfall totals as we head into the Late Afternoon hours, again this is just a quick coating to an inch. It will quickly go over to rain, rain washes everything away. For an hour or two, there could be some slick spots out here. Thats why the advisory has been issued. 24 inches for the poconos. Whatever you get initially should wash away as everything changes over to rain and look at the rain were expecting here, a good inch a little bit more. Close to an inch in atlantic city. That will wash everything away. Forecast for today, afternoon and evening rain, some of it will be heavy at times. Its a milder day. Yesterday we struggled the high was only 31 with wind chills in the 20s. Today our Late Afternoon high is 44. Well probably hit that around 7 00 or 8 00 this evening. Everything starts to clear out from west to east, 27 degrees outlying suburbs, 32 for center city. The exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, tomorrow is a cold day. Wind chills for the morning are in the Single Digits and teens. Tuesday 32.

When it comes to superstitions, philadelphia has quite a few. The mayor explains why he refused to put an eagles jersey on the statue of billy penn. I know our history. We put a cap on billy penn in 1993 and lost in that walkoff home run and then we put a flyers jersey in 1997 and lost to the wednesday red wings. So absolutely no way a jersey is going on billy penn. Go birds. Well be right back. The Team Favorite to win is the patriots. But im flying with the eagles because of their relentless defense.

The eagles wake up this morning after that final walkthrough yesterday. The eagles got a pop talk from brett favre and they get ready in minneapolis. Doug pederson says being out on the field, the players can see it, they can feel it. So you have to wonder when they went to combed last night, what are the nerves of your head coach. Hopefully its like i was going into the minnesota game. Im at peace. I can sleep well. I know the team is prepared. Weve exhausted everything in practice, study, the film, 9 whole thing. At that point you just you try to get in as much rest as you can. The players are the same way. Brian dawkins says this weekend could be electric. The eagles can win it all after he received the ultimate call last night. Dawkins and Terrill Owens finally elected. Dawkins one of the greatest safeties that ever lived said his family got emotional. Jamie apody goes one on one with weapon x. Congratulations. What was your reaction when you got the call .

These highlighted areas here, youll start out as a little bit of snow and going over to a wintry mix before going over to rain by mid afternoon. Whatever accumulation you see should quickly melt. Taking a quick look at Storm Tracker. Weve seen a lot of light snow, these lighter shades of gray, falling well west of philadelphia. Very, very light stuff, i would say about 50 to 60 of this is not even reaching the ground. Just a couple of flurries here. The latter view shows this out to the west. Whats happening is this moisture is lifting like this, the milder ocean air will continue to push westward so the rainsnow line will advance like this over the nicks 610 hours. It will not last long. It could create some problems early on. Its only 29 right now in kutztown, new holland 33, malvern 34. No issues south and east its cold but well above freezing at this point. Cloudy and damp this afternoon. Rain developing by midday. Highs around 44. Guys . Chris, thank you. It is finally super bowl sunday. The eagles will take the field in about nine hours to face that power house team the new England Patriots. But the birds have not let their underdog status intimidate them all season long, the biggest game of the year, no different. Owner Jeffrey Lurie was with them confidently on the sideline thats now marked with the eagles logo. We have Live Team Coverage in eagles super bowl lii. Brian taff and Sharrie Williams are at the mall of america, Ducis Rodgers and jamie apody are at the u. S. Bank stadium. Bob brooks has the massive security effort and Jeannette Reyes is following the fan pandemonium. Lets begin with brian and sharrie. Tonights game marks the end of the season but could mark the beginning of a new era for the eagles franchise. Reporter yeah. Were certainly hoping. Hello again from minnesota where super bowl magic could happen tonight. The eagles looking to put an exclamation point on a season filled with so much excitement. The mall of america starting to come to life now. We are one hour behind here. It is 9 00 a. M. Central time, mostly mall walkers milling about. This mall will become the hub of activity later on as fans lucky enough to have a super bowl ticket will come here to be screened then get on a train and go directly into u. S. Bank stadium. And that of course is what theyve been waiting for. Just a matter of time before the activity picks up here. But this has been the hub of activity all week and last night the eagles pride could be seen as the noticeable green and white is all over the twin cities. The love for this team could also be heard as fiancee rupted with the eagles chant over and over again and this is what they traveled here for. To take in the excitement of being here in the super bowl and some unique stories as to how some of these people fell in love with the eagles. Eagles nation living for this moment. Birds of a feather flock together and that goes for eagles fans, many of them are using super bowl sunday to common cause and reunite for one common cause and that is to cheer on their birds. Its great that i have this opportunity. Were meeting up with two other friends that just flew in. And theyre the ones for responsible for getting us the tickets so i cant wait to meet up with them and give lots of thanks. I cant wait to bring back the super bowl ringers. Yes. You can feel the excitement. Look at these people theyre having a great weekend. Its what they came here for and tonight it is game day. I had a hard time sleeping last night. Yeah, right . Weve been restless all week. And now finally it is super bowl sunday. Its finally here. And i doubt philadelphia slept last night. I doubt philadelphia will sleep tonight but well find out. Magic moments lie ahead. Were live in the mall of america. Sharrie williams along with brian taff. Guys well see you later on today as the game draws ever closer. It really is magical, brian. Thanks so much. Lets hope its a magical monday. Lets go now to jamie apody and Ducis Rodgers. They join us outside u. S. Bank stadium. Ducis, i want that hat. Reporter well work on that when we get back into philadelphia. All week long, head coach Doug Pederson has been stressing to his players to seize this moment. Theyll get that opportunity tonight inside the building behind us. He actually posted a sign with the phrase his father used to tell him, it says an individual can make a difference, a team can make a miracle. As for the matchup on the field, the eagles are a 4. 5 point underdog and when you look at the coaching matchup it may seem lopsided, but then again maybe not. On one side you have a relatively new guy who just completed his Second Season as an nfl head coach. On the other side its the experience of a living legend. The winningest coast of all time and the greatest quarterback of all time on their team. But doug is sharp. Thats our guy. We work with him every day. Reporter that is the sentiment that permeates throughout the locker room. They love their head coach. I just love him as a coach. I think he really knows his players well and puts players in a position to succeed based on things theyre good at. Reporter the birds also love the aggressiveness pederson shows. He has a lot of confidence in his guys. Hes playing to win. You go back to last week playing minnesota kicking a field goal, no one does that. Reporter he has not only earned the respect from his players, but also his opponent. The coach has done a great job, that Football Team they lost a couple of key players this year, they continue to role along with tremendous production. Reporter there is definitely Mutual Respect between pederson and belichick. Reporter hes been a great guy, look at the way his game planned. For jamie apody, im Ducis Rodgers, in machine yams at minneapolis at the super bowl. Back to you. Our coverage continues with bob brooks in Center Center philadelphia this morning. We hope theres reason to celebrate and all fans celebrate safely. Reporter absolutely. Now that the sun has come up, the city is starting to come to life. Weve been speaking to fans now for the last hour, hour and a half. They have plans for when the birds win to come out here and celebrate. The Police Department says they have absolutely no problem with that. Its just when everyone comes out here, they dont tear the city down in the process. These were the massive crowds after the nfc championship game. As expected they formed in notorious city hot spots, city hall, Frank Forward cotman, south philadelphia. Earlier this week Police Commissioner richard ross. Clearly assault, destruction of property will be dealt with swiftly. In the same breath police are encouraging celebration. After all, a win tonight in the super bowl would be a first for the city and no one wants to put a stop to soaking in the moment. We are about business, but we are still about the business of allowing people to celebrate as long as its done peacefully. Reporter now, the commissioner wouldnt go into too many details of what the plan is to keep order, but he did say they will not be greasing poles. Instead he says they have another plan. We spoke with a local Jiu Jitsu Club on broad street. He too echos the same sentiment. I dont want any rocks, i dont want any cars flipped over. I hope everybody has a good time with it, but i just dont anybody making too much damage. Reporter also lets talk parking restrictions. Theyre going into effect at 2 00 p. M. Today and will be in effect until tomorrow at 3 00 a. M. Broad street is lined with steel barriers ready to be put in place. There will be no parking from arch to pine around city hall also on broad street from dickinson to oregon avenue. No parking and median parking as well. We spoke with a man who lives in Northern Virginia now but he grew up in the area. He says he has some words of wisdom for the younger fans who might come out of here to celebrate. That was hes a father now, dont do what he did when he was their age. Pace yourself, go birds. And certainly do things peacefully when you come out here tonight. Bob brooks, channel 6 action news.
