Graystone Tavern & The Ramber: In particular, both sets of staff working the CHELSEAMANIA event, you were amazing and so many people complimented the lengths you went to ensure they had a great night.

Chi: From lighting our fires to cook great food, to helping us put them out, CHELSEAMANIA doesn’t go off without your help.

Chelsea FC & Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink: thank you to the Club for partnering with us for 2 days to film “Pride of Chicago” and the opportunity to host JFH for a special night at Rambler.

Carlos DelPozo: Our co-head & de facto ambassador who donated countless hours behind the scenes.

Jon Sharp: Our Secretary of American Heartland who handles all of our ticketing and finances.

Shellee & Vince Wolff: countless hours creating CHELSEAMANIA gift bags, hanging flags and planning the small things needed for success.

Ann, Prince, Rene, Dale, Rob for helping us set up early at Rambler for Night 1.

Our overseas and traveling friends, who donated time, advice, materials and/or videos to support Chelsea Chicago: Mitch, Walker, Grace, Chidge & JK, We Are The Shed, & Dmitry. And there are many more of you who have supported us throughout the years.

And a special of thanks to long-time friend and Chelsea encyclopedia Neil "Spy" Barnett, making his 2nd trip to Chicago, coming all the way from over the pond to bless us with his knowledge and wit. You're brilliant.

Last and most important, YOU: without supporters, our club is nothing. You come out in droves for 9 months a season, sing loud, have a good time, and help create an atmosphere that everyone wants to be a part of. That promo was truth. #BestInTheWorld
