PHILADELPHIA — The heartwarming video was shot seven years ago but has been making the rounds again lately. It’s of the late Kobe Bryant at home and gleefully watching his hometown Philadelphia Eagles win their first Lombardi Trophy.
It was shot in 2018 by Bryant’s wife, Vanessa, and originally posted on her Instagram account. The legendary Lakers star, cradling toddler daughter Bianka, paces in a darkened room at home while watching the Eagles put the finishing touches on a Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots.
“Oh my god, yes, bro,” Bryant erupts as Tom Brady’s last-gasp Hail Mary falls incomplete.
