"Celery, celery, if she can't come I tickle her bum with a stalk of celery"

Celery would regularly be thrown from the Shed End at the beginning of matches during the 80's with the chanting of the song - and once Chelsea got in to some Finals '97 onwards - the celery throwing became a traditional event at the beginning of the match. On Sunday there was just loads left over to launch at Fabregas at the corner flag!
