FEBRUARY QUIZZO: Super Sunday Spectators

Superbowl, schmuperbowl. Let’s go Birds in 2022!!

Super Bowl LVI is February 13th this year and the Eagles shocked just about everybody by sneaking into the playoffs (even if only for a hot minute). In honor of exceeding expectations and giving us hope for next season, a round about the Eagles.

Chelten Avenue, open weekdays 10am to 2pm (and there’s always a full box of papers out front). Thank you for supporting free, independent press!

8. Best known for his disciplined manner and ultra-patriotism, which Muppet was the self-appointed censor on The Muppet Show?
9. Though I’m not sure why the main characters didn’t just ride them the whole time, Eagles were a key method of transit in which fantasy film/book series?
