Parks became the latest social media wisdom-tooth surgery star after her dad posted a video of her still feeling the effects of anesthesia and worried that she missed the Super Bowl. On Tuesday.
The video below had more than 2.6 million Facebook views at the time of this blog post.
After waking up concerned about not feeling her chin and getting a discount from her doctors because the surgery took 30 minutes instead of 45, Parks’ thoughts went immediately to her beloved Eagles.
“Did I miss the Super Bowl? Oh my god. I want the Eagles to win so bad.”

She then spent three minutes straight breaking down Sunday’s game and talking about real sports fans. Some highlights:
– On Nick Foles: “St. Nick. I trust in St. Nick.”
-“Their defense isn’t that good, the Patriots. And Tom Brady. Who cares about Tom Brady?”
“You know what I hate? I hate fans that are fans now that weren’t fans. If they would have went 0-16, I would still be their friends.”
“I love the Eagles. They’re like my sisters.”
The post, which has warmed the hearts of Eagles fans, eventually got the attention of the actual Philadelphia Eagles, who responded to the post with this generous offer on Friday.
Nice job, Haley. And good timing on getting your wisdom teeth out.
