It’s not every day all the Philadelphia sports mascots show up to your school with the governor and the Eagles. But thanks to Operation Snowball, this year’s holiday season for students in Philadelphia public schools will be one to remember. Proceeds from “A Philly Special Christmas Party” album by Connor Barwin, Jason Kelce, Jordan Mailata, and Lane Johnson helped buy presents for every student in the city’s public school system. NBC10 tagged along during part of the police-escorted motorcade as the Eagles and state officials made special deliveries to three schools: Eliza B. Kirkbride School, Benjamin Franklin High School, and Alliance for Progress Charter School.

Also, “Saturday Night Live” star Pete Davidson even tagged along, sharing that he is an honorary member of the Bird Gang. When asked why he was an Eagles fan, Davidson said, “Because of Big Dom.” Philadelphia School Superintendent Dr. Tony Watlington also joined in on the fun. “I’ve been in education a long long time. I can tell you never seen anything like this in any of the 50 states. Any city across country,” Watlington said. “There so many volunteers. It’s I think it really speaks to testament of city and the spirit of Philadelphia that this was able to happen in our community.” said Kelce.
