Joel Embiid celebrates Eagles victory on FOX 29

Philadelphia 76ers all-star center Joel Embiid pops into the live shot of FOX 29's Chris O'Connell during Sunday night celebrations after the Eagles defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII.

MINNEAPOLIS (WTXF) - You just never know who is going to pop into your live shot during Super Bowl celebrations. On Sunday night, it was 76ers all-star center Joel Embiid who turned up right behind FOX 29's Chris O'Connell.

It happened just after the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New England Patriots 41-33 in Super Bowl LII.

"That was amazing. You know, I'm happy for the whole city of Philadelphia. We're gonna have a lot of fun. Now, we're up next, and I'm gonna do my best to do it."

By the way, Embiid noted that the Eagles are undefeated when he attends their games.

"I must be their lucky charm," he said.

When O'Connell told Embiid, "you're next," you can probably guess his response.

"Trust the process!" he shouted, as he ran off into the celebrating crowds.
