If you were wondering how Florida would get in on the Super Bowl stories, here you go.
Two over-excited Eagles fans celebrated the dramatic Super Bowl victory behind bars after leaving their son in a car while they watched the game in a bar, according to authorities.
Kristal Valenti referred to Sunday night’s NFL title game as “a very big event” as she tried to fist-bump a Florida deputy while laughing, according to court records obtained by the Daily News.
Valenti told police officers and deputies in Flagler County that she reassured her son she would be right inside the Beer House in Bunnell if he needed anything, and that “she was doing this because it was the Super Bowl and she really wanted the Eagles to win,” according to court records.
An anonymous caller had called authorities to say that the child had been left unattended in a truck outside a bar. The child would be found wandering in front of the Beer House “unattended and unsupervised.”
In addition, employees of the bar told authorities they became concerned about the safety of the child. The boy was seen running towards a nearby highway at one point.
They have been arrested for child neglect.
