He wasn’t alone.
Just got these photos from Andrew Immordino. He's inside U.S. Bank Stadium with his brother's ashes and ready to root for his hometown team. https://t.co/PnyMiC6z72 pic.twitter.com/qpCsuZozxY

My uncle, who was also a father figure in my life, passed away a year and a half ago. Yesterday was his birthday and he was the biggest @Eagles fan. His brother is taking a small vial of his ashes to the #EaglesParade to be spread out as they follow along. I love and miss you.
