New Orleans brewery with ties to Philadelphia gears up to host Eagles fans
A brewery in New Orleans with ties to Philadelphia is looking to host the ultimate Super Bowl party.
Adam Ritter moved to the Big Easy after spending years in Philly, but he's always been an Eagles fan.
At his brewery, Zony Mash Beer Project, they're getting ready to throw the ultimate tailgate on Sunday.
"Now it's going to be a tailgate party for all of my friends from Philadelphia that have a home away from home," Ritter said.
From brewing cocktail concoctions to unique IPAs, Ritter and his team are working around the clock as they expect more than 400 people to attend.
"Right now we're in the process of kegging beers, kegging cocktails, taking in all the wine and the great offerings we'll provide on Sunday," Ritter said.
Aside from the drinks, they'll also be giving fans an authentic New Orleans experience filled with live jazz music and cuisine.
"We're here just wanting to enjoy our culture and our heritage with all the Philadelphia fans," Ritter said.
After growing up in Cherry Hill, New Jersey and attending Temple University, Ritter opened up the bar and venue inside of a historic movie theater in 2019.
It's located in New Orleans right near a familiar street from back home: Broad.
"Well, I brought the Philly attitude," Ritter joked.
Then he put on a Philly accent: "How youse doing, huh?"
Kerry Lauricella is helping put on the event in the only way he knows how to — with real Southern hospitality.
"We're going to give these guests from Philly a party that they'll never forget," Lauricella said.
The tailgate will take place at the brewery from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Browns rival Bengals cuts linebacker Germaine Pratt after six seasons
The Cleveland Browns may no longer have to see linebacker Germaine Pratt twice per year as the Cincinnati Bengals have moved on from their former starting linebacker. A former third round pick of the Bengals in 2019, Pratt went on to start 88 total games in Cincinnati. He was a member of the Bengals' 2021 squad that took down the Kansas City Chiefs to earn a spot in the Super Bowl before coming up just short in a loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Advertisement Throughout his six-year career, Pratt has amassed 355 solo tackles, 32 tackles for loss, seven forced fumbles, and seven interceptions. This output earned him a starting role extremely fast, pairing up with Logan Wilson in Year 2 as the full-time starter after even starting nine games as a rookie. It even earned him a second contract with the team, signing a three-year contract extension in 2023 worth $20.25 million in total and earning him $7 million in guaranteed money. Pratt was in the last year of that deal as he now hits the free agency market. The Bengals will see a $5.85 million cap saving after the move while opting to eat $2.33 million in dead money as a result. He now hits the free agency market at the age of 29, looking for a new home. Could the Browns be a landing spot as Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah remains sidelined for the entirety of the 2025 season?

There's only one Jordon Hudson confidant willing to talk about her — here's what he said
There have been many descriptors added to Jordon Hudson's name over the past 12 months as her relationship with Bill Belichick has come under intense scrutiny. For the lone Hudson confidant who has spoken publicly about the former college cheerleader, one label transcends new heights. 'I consider her a supernova,' celebrity hairstylist Dougie Freeman, who likened his one-time employee to the phenomenon described by NASA as the 'extremely bright, super powerful explosion of a star,' said in a new interview with The Athletic.

Getty Images 5 Bill Belichick's romance with Jordon Hudson became public in 2024. Getty Images for the American Museum of Natural History 'Our motto here at the salon is, 'Let us help you use what you've got to get what you want' … and maybe Jordon Hudson is a good example of that.' Advertisement Hudson, who shot to fame in the summer of 2024 when her romance with the 73-year-old Belichick became public, began working at Freeman's West End Salon & Spa in Provincetown, Mass., when she was still in high school. 5 Dougie Freeman worked with Jordon Hudson. Facebook/West End Salon and Spa Freeman believes the Massachusetts town, regarded as one of the most welcoming and friendly LGBTQ+ locales in the country, helped to broaden Hudson's horizons. 'Growing up in this town, she saw how alternative relationships work. They can work,' Freeman said. 'I think that validated it for her.' Advertisement Freeman is one of the few connected to Hudson who has opened up about the Miss Maine USA contestant, with The Athletic noting the 'dozen-plus friends of Hudson' whom they reached out to did not get back to the outlet. 5 Jordon Hudson's profile has continued to rise amid her relationship with Bill Belichick. WireImage 'She seems to be doing fine,' said Freeman, who 'last spoke to Hudson via a series of internet DMs,' per The Athletic. 'She said, 'I understand you're going to do an interview with the Washington Post.' And I said, 'I said a lot of nice things about you, I think you'll be pleased with it.' And I assume she was.' Advertisement Hudson has been by Belichick's side as he prepares for his first season coaching North Carolina's football team. 5 Bill Belichick with Jordon Hudson in March 2025. Getty Images Although there has been much speculation about Hudson's role in Chapel Hill — much of which began after a disastrous 'CBS Sunday Morning' appearance in April, when she punted a question about the origins of the Belichick relationship — the eight-time Super Bowl winner clarified her position in an ESPN interview last month. 'That's really off to the side, it's a personal relationship. She doesn't have anything to do with UNC football,' Belichick said. With the Tar Heels' season opener against TCU approaching on Sept. 1, all eyes remain on Belichick and Hudson — something Freeman cautioned as her star continues to rise. 'Fame comes with some barbs,' he said. 'And it doesn't always come with fortune.' Hudson and Belichick first crossed paths aboard a flight in 2021. They celebrated their four-year meet-iversary in February.

A.J. Brown says he's hungry for more after seeing his banner get displayed at The Linc
A.J. Brown says he's hungry for more after seeing his banner get displayed at The Linc Philadelphia All-Pro WR A.J. Brown expresses his hunger for more after the Eagles displayed his banner on the side of Lincoln Financial Field. A.J. Brown didn't rest on his laurels after winning Super Bowl 59. He chose to get right back into the gym and take his skills to another level as the Birds look to repeat as Champions. Brown recently traveled to the most "dangerous gym in America" to test his mind, body, and spirit. Brown is taking things to another level, and that means taking second-year wide receiver Ainias Smith under his wing. Recently, Brown and Smith ran the steps at Lincoln Financial Field, followed by Brown giving the versatile pass catcher from Texas A&M advice on "visualizing your goals' and "manifesting your success." Brown's words are powerful and can resonate with anyone regardless of what phase of life you're currently embarking on. While talking to Smith, Brown told the second-year wide receiver that seeing himself up on a fresh, new banner outside the stadium has left him hungry for more. Brown is having a great off-season, and in Pro Football Focus's ranking of the top 32 NFL wide receivers, landed the top spot, with DeVonta Smith in the top 20. Despite missing three games due to injury, A.J. Brown led the team with 1,079 receiving yards. He also ranked 1st in receiving average (16.1) (min. 60 catches) and 3rd in receiving yards per game (83.0) (min. 13 games), behind Ja'Marr Chase (100.5) and Justin Jefferson (90.2). Smith posted a career-high 8 TDs in the regular season and hauled in a 46-yard TD in Super Bowl LIX. During the run to the Super Bowl, he became the franchise's all-time leader in postseason receiving yards (595).
