It’s impossible to ever get enough of this.<doc-sep>The Eagles didn't get to go the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl win this year, but they did get a ring ceremony, and that finally went down on Thursday night. Four months after beating the Patriots 41-33 in Super Bowl LII, the team finally unveiled their championship rings. If all the diamonds are any indication, the ring was definitely worth the wait. Ladies and gentleman, I present to you: The Eagles Super Bowl LII ring. The Eagles unveiled their Super Bowl ring on Thursday Twitter/Eagles Here's an up-close look at the Eagles' ring, courtesy of Carson Wentz. The ring was created by Jostens, a company that has now been involved with the creation of 34 out of 52 championship rings since the Super Bowl's inception in 1967. The best part about the ring is that it commemorates the most dramatic play of Super Bowl LII: Philly Special. So how do exactly you commemorate an entire play with a piece of jewelry? With the diamonds. The bezel of the ring contains a waterfall of 127 diamonds, which isn't a coincidence. The Eagles picked that number because it was the sum of all the jersey numbers of the players who touched the ball on the play. Here's the math: 9 (Nick Foles) + 30 (Corey Clement) + 88 (Trey Burton) = 127. In total, there are 219 diamonds on the ring and nearly every single one of them serves a purpose. There are 52 diamonds because the Eagles won Super Bowl LII and another 16 diamonds because the Eagles won 16 games. The Eagles also added three diamonds to commemorate the team's three playoff wins. The ring also consists of 17 green sapphires. The Eagles also managed to honor their official fight song (Fly, Eagles, Fly) and their role as an underdog during the postseason. The team had both a dog mask and a title of the song inscribed into the ring. And no, that is not a typo, there is a dog mask inscribed on the ring, as you can see below. The Eagles Super Bowl ring includes a dog mask. PhiladelphiaEagles.com By the way, it's no surprise that the Eagles squeezed 219 diamonds on to their first Super Bowl, because that's exactly what everyone wanted. The Eagles actually held a team meeting back in February to try and decide what the ring should look like, and according to owner Jeffrey Lurie, everyone voted for the same thing. "Right after we won -- before the parade -- we had a meeting and it was like, 'You know, maybe we should go the elegant route or something like that,'" Laurie said before Thursday's event, via the Philadelphia Inquirer. "And all the players jumped forward and said 'No, no, no, no no! The bigger, the blingier, the better!'" When it comes to Super Bowl rings, blingier is always better. Malcolm Jenkins was one of the few players who already had a Super Bowl ring before the 2017 season and he was completely on board with the gaudier design. "Mr. Lurie asked if we wanted to be modest and the answer was a resounding 'No! We don't want to be modest," Jenkins said, via NBC Philadelphia. "It's the first time, so act like we've never been there before." Each player was given a ring in their own personal box and Jenkins showed off his box on Instagram. The event on Thursday, which was held at a place in South Philly, turned into a reunion of sorts. Multiple players who are no longer with the Eagles -- like Burton, Beau Allen, Vinny Curry and LeGarrette Blount -- all showed up to get their ring. Here's what things looked like on the outside of the event. Many of the players showed up in style, including Jason Peters, who rented a party bus, because why wouldn't you rent a party bus for a Super Bowl ring ceremony? For coach Doug Pederson, the ring ceremony will mark the final time that he's going to celebrate the Super Bowl win. Earlier this week, Pederson said that he was going to move past the Super Bowl at, "12:01 a.m., June 15th." "Honestly, after the ring ceremony, to me, we've put that to bed," Pederson said two days before the ceremony. "We've put that to rest, and we move on to 2018. Listen, we always are going to remember. It's going to be every time we're in the city -- I was at two events yesterday and the city's on fire. It's great. I love it. Fans are excited, and they should be. But for us, we've got focus on 2018 and get ready for training camp."

The Eagles ring ceremony is a private event, meaning it is closed to the media and fans. The event is not expected to be televised (although NFL Network may have some coverage). Some video and photos from the event may be released later Thursday night, but there are some good news for fans. A press release from Jostens (the ring company that will provide the Eagles Super Bowl rings) stated replica rings would be available online immediately after the team ring ceremony. This will be the first NFL championship rings for the Eagles since 1960. Philadelphia defeated the New England Patriots 41-33 to snap a 57-year championship drought, which the Eagles will be honored for next week. After the Eagles receiver their rings, the focus will be to repeat. Repeating as NFL champions is one of the hardest accomplishments in sports as it only has been done eight times in the Super Bowl era. The Pittsburgh Steelers were the only team to repeat twice (1975-1976, 1979-1980). The Green Bay Packers (1967-1968), Miami Dolphins (1973-1974), San Francisco 49ers (1989-1990), Dallas Cowboys (1993-1994), Denver Broncos (1997-1998) and New England Patriots (2003-2004) are the other teams to repeat. Since 1990, repeating as Super Bowl champions have only been done three times, demonstrating the parity of the NFL. The 13 seasons since the last Super Bowl repeat champion is the NFL's longest drought. The Eagles are beginning their quest to repeat as Super Bowl champions with minicamp underway!

If the Eagles were to repeat, the 2018 Eagles would be the second team in franchise history to repeat as champions. The 1948 and 1949 Eagles won back-to-back NFL titles as they were the team of the 1940s. "I was obsessed to begin with," Eagles chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie said in March. "I’m equally obsessed to be the first team to try to repeat in a long time. And try to put us in a position over the next several years to have an opportunity to repeat what we just accomplished. "It wasn’t just the parade, it wasn’t just on the field with the confetti, it’s every day since," Lurie said. "I can’t tell you how many times people come up to me, wherever it is, there are always Eagles fans everywhere, they may see you and start crying. They may see you and start hyperventilating. The stories they have with their mothers, their fathers, who they got to experience it with, I don’t know if you could explain it to fans everywhere in the country. But those of us who know the passion and the love for this football team and how much they’ve wanted the Eagles to win a Super Bowl, it’s like it gets played out every day in a real, emotional, personal way." If the Eagles repeat as Super Bowl champions, maybe the next ring ceremony will be open to the fans. At least the players didn't have to but the rings like the 1960 title team.<doc-sep>
The Philadelphia Eagles celebrated their Super Bowl LII win for a final time, unveiling their championship rings at a ceremony held Thursday night. The Super Bowl rings are made of pure 10-karat white gold, adorned with a total of 219 diamonds and 17 rare green sapphires. There's also a dog mask is inscribed on the inside of the ring to highlight the underdog theme that galvanized the team on its title run. "It was such a detailed process, from every bit of wording that was on the ring to the placement of the diamonds, to the shape, the size," Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie said. "I thought, 'You know, you just sort of come up with some ring, and you make many, and you have a party.' I never really thought of the details that were required. You go through so much during a season. "What, when you’re looking back 20 years from now, do you want to have signified with that ring? What are the statements that you want to make about the team, about the season, about the kinds of players and coaches that we had? It’s kind of like, how do you want to be remembered 20 years from now?" Take a look at what the team's Super Bowl rings look like, and players posting their new bling to social media.
