Commission a Bronze Statue of Jason Kelce at the Philadelphia Museum of Art
Why this petition matters
We are calling for the creation and installation of a bronze statue to honor Eagles’ center, Jason Kelce, for his iconic “Hungry Dogs Run Faster” speech. This impassioned address was delivered on February 8, 2018, following the Eagles' triumphant win in Super Bowl LII. The proposed statue would depict Kelce in his memorable Mummers’ Parade attire and be placed at the Philadelphia Museum of Art - the very location where he gave this historic speech. To maintain symmetry with existing installations, it could be positioned directly opposite to Rocky's statue at the base of the museum.
This initiative is not just about commemorating an individual or a team's victory; it represents one of our city’s proudest moments that resonated with millions across Philadelphia and beyond. According to Nielsen ratings (source: Nielsen Company), over 103 million people watched Super Bowl LII making it one among top ten most-watched television events in U.S history.
The proposed statue will serve as a permanent reminder of our city's resilience, unity, and unyielding spirit - values embodied by Jason Kelce’s stirring words that day. Let us immortalize this significant piece of our history for future generations to draw inspiration from.
