Vegetables

No, I don't know what it's all about either but The Guardian has reported it:
Chelsea have banned celery from Stamford Bridge and ordered fans to stop throwing it during matches after the Football Association launched an investigation into instances of salad tossing at their recent matches.
Two referees have now mentioned celery being thrown onto the pitch during their official reports of Chelsea matches, while Arsenal's players complained of being pelted with the vegetable when they tried to take corners during the first half of the Carling Cup final.

This news is no joke. Chelsea fans has this song or chant:

"Celery, Celery, If she don't come I'll tickle her bum with a lump of celery!"

Afterwards some people throw celery on the field...it's a bit weird...
