Philadelphia Eagles to visit the White House to celebrate Super Bowl win

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Tuesday the Philadelphia Eagles officially accepted an invitation to come to the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl victory.

At a press briefing, Leavitt said the NFL team will attend the White House event on April 28.

“I know there was a lot of fake news about an invitation that wasn't sent or was sent," Leavitt said. "We want to correct the record we sent an invitation, they enthusiastically accepted, and you will see them here on April 28.”

The Eagles last month defeated the Kansas City Chiefs for the Super Bowl win.

In 2018 when the Eagles won the Super Bowl, they did not celebrate their victory with President Donald Trump when he was in his first term.

Trump attended the Super Bowl this year, making him the first sitting U.S. president to attend the biggest game of the NFL season.
