Eagles sell out of dirty snow from NFL playoff game in bizarre cash grab

Eagles sell out of dirty snow from NFL playoff game in bizarre cash grab

A select few Eagles fans got their hands on a special piece of memorabilia from Philadelphia’s Divisional Round win over the Rams at Lincoln Financial Field. 

Let’s just hope they got it into their freezers quickly. 

The team sold 100 pints of snow from Sunday’s game for $50 each — and the lot sold out in roughly two hours.

According to a press release from the Eagles, the “snow will be shipped using dry ice to maintain its natural state during transit.”

The team is encouraging buyers “to keep the container frozen to further preserve and maintain the snow’s authentic state.”

Eagles brᴀss gave quite the sales pitch on their unique commemorative item on the sale page at TheRealest.com. 

“This isn’t your typical piece of memorabilia — it’s a tangible, frozen snapsH๏τ of the grit, pᴀssion, and determination that defined the iconic game,” the item’s description read. “By preserving and authenticating the very snow that surrounded this monumental game, fans are offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to connect with the playoff experience like never before.”

Eagles cornerback Darius Slay was surprised the team even had the creativity to sell a bucket of frozen water. 

“What are they doing, like scooping it and putting it in that thing like ice cream?” Slay said Wednesday when asked about the snow sale. “That’s crazy. So somebody is going to really buy snow?”

But when Slay found out the snow had already sold out, he wasn’t completely surprised, given the devotion of Eagles fans. 

“People bought snow? That’s why this is the best city, man,” Slay said. “They pᴀssionate around here. We buying snow. I love it.”
