Over a million Eagles fans lined up along Broad Street to celebrate the Eagles Super Bowl LIX win. Hundreds of people left with memorabilia, but only one fan left with a special souvenirs, that came with specific instructions.

Amy Rannabargar, a La Salle University graduate, shared with NBC10 that she found a Eagles starter jacket hanging from a light post at the Philadelphia Museum of Art during the closing moments of the parade.

“I thought, oh no, someone left their jacket,” Rannabargar said.

Rannabargar then discovered that the jacket was actually left behind intentionally, with a to-do duct taped to the inside of the jacket that read:

“If found, do not return. This jacket belongs to you! I found this jacket on the night of the Super Bowl in 2018 and it only felt right to release back into the city when the Eagles won again. Enjoy the jacket. I hope you get the opportunity to release back into the world with another SB win soon. Go Birds.”

Rannabargar took to social media to share her memorabilia. She posted the jacket on Facebook, detailing the story in her caption, hoping to spread some extra joy throughout the Eagles community.

“I posted on my Facebook page and then decided to post it on the Philadelphia Eagles fan page because I’m sure everyone would get a kick out of this and did not expect it to just spread the way that it did, but I love that the joy has spread like that,” said Rannabargar.

It took seven years for the last jacket owner to leave it for someone else, but Rannabargar is confident that she will have to give up the jacket in sooner than its previous owner.

“Next Super Bowl, I want to pay it forward,” said Rannabargar.
