Saquon Barkley was partyin' like he was back at Penn State Sunday night ... the Eagles star was shotgunnin' beers after securing his first Super Bowl win with Philly!

And, it was his 28th birthday!!!

The celebration was after the Eagles whooped the 2x defending champ Kansas City Chiefs, 40-22, in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.

It's the second championship for the franchise and a first for many Eagles players, including Barkley, who signed with the team this offseason.

Cardi B is in full celebration mode ahead of the Super Bowl … turning up in style on the streets of New Orleans with a top-shelf booze brand!

Peep this vid of Cardi turning Bourbon Street into "Cardi Gras" Friday… linking up with Fat Tuesday, tossing back her vodka-infused Whipshots collab with the company, and lobbing 'em into the crowd so everyone could get a taste of the party.

Everyone in town got a front-row seat to the Cardi B show -- she was out and about, keeping the vibes high and making sure everyone is hyped for the weekend.

The Big Game is in the Big Easy and Cardi B is teaming up with a famous booze brand to make history ... in the form of a 350-gallon daiquiri the world has never seen.

Fat Tuesday and Cardi B's Whipshots are getting the party started in New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX with the world's biggest daiquiri ... a monstrosity of a cocktail that was six months in the making.

A marvel of engineering, the 350-gallon cocktail lives within a 22-foot tall container made from solid steel. The drink features a Fat Tuesday frozen mix and it's topped off with Whipshots, Cardi's vodka-infused whipped cream.

Jeff Beacher -- the showman behind the famed Beacher's Madhouse -- is the guy pulling all the strings here ... we're told he invested over $250,000 to pull this off, with six months of engineering needed to bring this idea to life.

The massive drink was poured Friday morning at Beacher's Madhouse ... but it's too big for revelers to consume. Instead, it's serving as a prop for photo ops.

Fat Tuesday will be serving smaller versions of the world's largest daiquiri all night at its pre-Super Bowl party ... 18-oz yards filled with strawberry margarita made from Don Julio 1942 tequila.

The drinks are called the Royal Rita, in honor of Cardi.

Kesha served up some champagne during her NYC show Thursday -- but it wasn't what one paparazzi ordered ... the flying bottle whacked him in the stomach!

Here's how it went down ... the singer was performing at YSL Beauty Candy Club in SoHo last night when she launched into her hit "Joyride," with a couple male dancers onstage as a large crowd of influencers watched.

Check out video, obtained by TMZ ... Kesha is holding a bottle of champagne while belting out the tune with the dancers on their knees around her. She starts shaking the open bottle, shooting bubbly everywhere, spraying her dancers and herself.

"I sincerely appreciate your concerns & thank you for your kind understanding," he added.

New police video, obtained by TMZ Sports, shows Marcus Jordan name-dropped his famous father to cops in an apparent effort to get out of trouble before his arrest on Tuesday morning.

The footage was captured on Maitland Police Department officers' body cameras at 1:14 AM ... right around the time cops first discovered Marcus and a woman inside a blue Lamborghini SUV that had gotten stuck on some train tracks.

Initially, you can see in the video that Jordan tried to move the car off the railway with his foot on the gas ... but when the pricey ride's tires spun in place no matter how hard he pressed, cops asked him to get out of the vehicle.

Animal Planet’s Forrest Galante -- wildlife expert, biologist, and TV host known for a series of “Shark Week” specials on Discovery -- tells us he’s confident the 525-pound Yogi making headlines Friday was looking for sweets, booze and a place to crash after being displaced by the massive blazes -- the Eaton Fire specifically, in this instance.

If you've ever gone camping in SoCal, you've probably seen bears raiding dumpsters and campsites … and, Galante says this results in many acquiring a sweet tooth and a drinking problem -- and, just because their normal supply is eliminated doesn't mean the cravings end.

According to police records obtained by TMZ ... the 47-year-old was arrested in an Arby's parking lot in Yreka, California just after midnight on Sunday ... where the local police department picked him up for allegedly driving under the influence -- and his blood alcohol level was reportedly at or above 0.08%.

On Sunday he wished his wife, equestrian Jessica Rose Lee, a happy birthday on Instagram ... saying she makes their family's "dreams come true and inspires us even more."

As often as they drive their fans to drink, you'd think the Colorado Rockies would know how to pour a frickin' beer ... but, alas, they don't!

The organization intended to have some fun on social media on Friday, pouring an ice-cold Coors Light into a (previously used?) beer mug ... but their technique left a lot to be desired (it was all foam!!!).

Fans weren't shy about speaking up, quickly flaming the Rockies, who play at Coors Field, in the X comment section over their inability to pour the perfect brewski.

Las Vegas Raiders defensive lineman Charles Snowden appeared to be so out of it during his DUI arrest last month, police video shows one cop actually thought the football player was "too drunk to even stand."

Body cam footage, obtained by TMZ Sports, shows the SUV was actually teetering on a retaining wall ... and despite multiple attempts to wake him up and get him to turn off the car, the video shows Snowden wouldn't budge.

Chase Chrisley's alleged confrontation with a Georgia bar manager was a lot crazier than originally thought, according to newly released 911 audio -- which even captured the moment the worker supposedly got slapped!

TMZ obtained the nearly 3-minute-long phone call placed by Twin Peaks manager Brendon Nash to the 911 operator ... it starts with Nash requesting police assistance while repeatedly telling someone -- presumably Chase -- not to touch him.

Nash also tells 911 the "aggressive" man assaulted him with a chair and wants the cops to kick the dude out of the saloon. He describes the suspect as a 5-foot-8 white guy, early-30s, and "literally drunk," pointing out there's a driver with him.

The four people the feds thought were in cahoots with New Orleans terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar weren't helping him plant bombs around the French Quarter ... they were party people looking for their next drink.

Federal sources tell TMZ ... the confusion started when investigators looked at surveillance video from the Bourbon Street area and noticed 3 men and a woman peering inside two coolers in which Jabbar had planted homemade bombs ... leading to theories Jabbar was not acting alone.

Our sources say investigators ultimately determined these people weren't terrorists at all ... rather they were partiers checking the coolers to see if there was booze inside.
