PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Pennsylvania's State Capitol turns green to support the Birds. 

Governor Josh Shapiro flipped the switch in Harrisburg.

"Congratulations Philadelphia Eagles, what a huge win. NFC champions and in two weeks we bring that Lombardi trophy back to Philly, back to Pennsylvania. Birds nation, this is big, right now. This is huge and I got a little something for you to celebrate the win and to get ready for the Super Bowl," Shapiro said.
