De Niro — known for his roles in Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Cape Fear, and more — showed up at Lincoln Financial Field around 1 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 3, according to multiple X, formerly known as Twitter, accounts.

The award-winning actor is in Pennsylvania to support the Harris-Walz campaign during an event in Harrisburg on Monday, Nov. 4, according to a news release. Both the Harris and Trump campaigns are holding competing rallies across the state on the eve of Election Day, previous reporting by Daily Voice states.

"Did Robert De Niro join your tailgate? No? That’s why the tailgates hosted by @philatticus and @ianfromphilly are the best," Eagles fan Mark Kremer posted on his X account along with several photos of the actor hanging out with tailgaters.

Sunday Night Football and the official Philadelphia Eagles X accounts also posted some of Kremer's photos.

"Eagles tailgate silver lining: seeing Robert De Niro," the Sunday Night Football post said. 

"Eagles tailgates remain elite. 👋 Robert De Niro," the Eagles post states.

Another fan posted, "Oh nothing, just Robert DeNiro pulling up to @philatticus tailgate," along with a video of De Niro hanging out with tailgaters.
