The Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl LIX champions and are celebrating their win with their fans during the parade. Going by how passionate sports fans from the city are, it was not a surprise that Saquon Barkley, Jalen Hurts and his teammates saw them coming in hordes.
That also meant Eagles players had to step off their parade buses and celebrate with the fans lining the streets. After conquering the biggest game of all, connecting with their supporters was the least they could do.
Saquon Barkley and his teammates were on the ground, high fiving fans behind the guard rails. At that moment, the superstar running back noticed a familiar face in the crowd. He stopped to look back and saw that a Philadelphia Eagles ball boy was amongst the fans.

He went back, hugged him, and then lifted him up over the barricades and down into the parade path. Barkley was not going to let a staff member stand behind the guard rails. The RB knows how much those behind the scenes have a hand in the success they are reveling in.
Barkley might not be doing what he did for his offensive linemen, but this gesture was almost as good as that. Personally ensuring that the ball boy becomes a part of the Super Bowl LIX winning parade as a member who had a hand in that success was surreal.
Fans in awe as Saquon Barkley brings in ball boy into Super Bowl parade
Fans of the sport know that Saquon Barkley is one of the stronger ones. He might just be 6 feet and 233lb. However, he is known to push his body to the limits in the weight room. He has displayed those physical attributes this season. But fans were shocked to see that in real life as he picked a grown man over a barricade.

Along with that, the running back including a ball boy into the parade, melted the hearts of many. Knowing not many do such deeds, fans took to social media to praise the superstar. Check out examples of those comments below.

It is not known if the 28-year-old star halfback took the ball boy onto the team bus. But if clips from the parade are anything to go by, it is likely that the ball boy had the time of his life. Barkley was seen drinking beer, having a pizza etc. while tossing Super Bowl LIX winning t-shirts towards fans.
