Thursday was a big day for the Eagles and Miller Lite.

The Eagles and MillerCoors have extended their partnership for an additional five years to continue providing Eagles fans with unique game experiences.

The Miller Lite Phlite Deck is the latest creation from the Eagles and MillerCoors partnership. The Phlite Deck offers Eagles fans the opportunity to watch a game from an excellent location while also being front and center for a live halftime performance. The Miller Lite Phlite Deck is the first NFL stadium party deck to feature a stage that will host live musical acts during halftime.

Debuting when the Eagles take on the St. Louis Rams on Sunday, the Phlite Deck is located on the concourse level behind section 107 and features turf flooring, cocktail tables and a bar featuring Miller products.

At the unveiling on Sept. 4, Eagles' senior vice president Mark Donovan presented a ceremonial first ticket to Elina Maniec, Miller Lite's senior marketing manager, North Atlantic. Both said the new Phlite Deck will offer fans a terrific view of the action.

The Miller Lite Phlite Deck is a ticketed area. Fans can log on to the new Miller Lite page on this website, PhiladelphiaEagles.com/MillerLite, to find out how to receive tickets through Miller Lite promotional teams at bars throughout the Philadelphia region. Along with Phlite Deck information, the site provides game-day photos and information on where Miller Lite will be sponsoring away game parties. Miller Lite Phlite Deck

The Eagles and MillerCoors partnership also provides fans with the opportunity to attend the annual Miller Lite Countdown to Kickoff Party.

Held at Lincoln Financial Field's HeadHouse Plaza on Thursday night, the Miller Lite Countdown to Kickoff Party celebrates the first regular season NFL game.
