Diehard Philadelphia Eagles fan, 102, reveals why she has never missed a game… and her four tips for a long life

Diehard Philadelphia Eagles fan, 102, reveals why she has never missed a game... and her four tips for a long life

Eloise Brown has been alive for all four of the Philadelphia Eagles previous NFL championships, three that predate the Super Bowl era. 

She’s the 102-year-old diehard Eagles fan that’s lived in America’s first capital city her entire life, and Brown has never missed a game for her favorite team that she predates in Philadelphia by 11 years. 

With the Phillies, Flyers, 76ers, and Union in town, as well as Drexel, cheesesteaks, and much more, Brown still has dedicated herself to the Eagles. 

‘I’m a Pennsylvanian. It’s my state and my city,’ she told TODAY.com. 

Brown, who has no relation to Eagles’ wide receiver AJ Brown, has met several current players for the team and head coach Nick Sirianni. 

The fan in her second century as a football fan also gave her four trips for a long and lasting life.

Drinking water, staying active, having strong values, and staying positive are the quartet of tips from Brown. 

Brown says she gets exercise by walking for 30 minutes around her neighborhood per day when it is not too cold outside.

The three particular values Brown holds close – ‘faith, family and football.’

‘You want to blame everybody responsible for what’s going on, but then look at themselves and say, “Wait a minute. Am I treating this person right?”‘ Brown said of her personal philosophy.

Brown’s belief in staying positive has not wavered. That includes after the Washington Commanders beat the Eagles in the regular season, with the team exacting revenge in the NFC Championship Game last month. 

‘I’m not in charge of anything, but usually, I’ll close my eyes, say a little something, and OOP! They win,’ Brown said. 

Brown will be glued to her television screen as the Eagles play the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl on Sunday night, trying to avoid Travis Kelce and his team becoming the first team to win three consecutive NFL тιтles since she was in her mid 40s.
