When Jeffrey Lurie purchased the Eagles in 1994, his goal was to bring the first Super Bowl Championship to Philadelphia. That goal was fulfilled seven months ago as the Eagles dethroned the New England Patriots in one of the most thrilling title games in NFL history. Tonight, he shared the Championship Moment with the community and the story with us.

It was clear, as Lurie looked out onto the field on February 4, that it was a special group that brought this championship to Philadelphia. "In addition to our talented players and coaches, it took everyone in the organization and the support of our fans coming together to achieve this goal. It was a very proud moment for me," he said.

As he held the Vince Lombardi Trophy in his hands on the stage at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis that night, he also thought a lot about the people he would dedicate that seven-pound sterling silver symbol of victory to – his mom and his late father, Morris, who lost his battle with cancer when Jeffrey was just 9 years old.

Community has always been at the forefront for Lurie. When he became the Chairman and CEO of the Eagles, he immediately recognized and felt the connection between the team and the community. Lurie made sure that the Eagles were not only going to thrive on the field but in their neighborhood outreach as well. He was instrumental in the creation of Eagles Youth Partnership and the 22 playgrounds built, and its transition to the Eagles Charitable Foundation with its signature program, the Eagles Eye Mobile, serving tens of thousands of children each year, as well as the launch of the Eagles Autism Challenge that raised over $2.5 million in its first year.

Lurie knew how jubilant the city was to be Super Bowl Champions for the first time. He thought long and hard about how to share the Championship Moment on Thursday night with the fans and said, "I truly believe that it takes a village to win a Championship, and thanks to our incredibly passionate fans from around the world, we were able to bring the first Lombardi Trophy home to Philadelphia. It is a privilege and a great honor to be celebrating this unforgettable moment in team history with our Eagles family."
