Hi guys welcome to another episode of
ultimate bucket list and on today's show
i'm here at stamford bridge the famous
home
of chelsea football club
one of the oldest stadiums in the
country and technically the national
stadium before wembley was invented
stamford bridge is home to the famous
chelsea football club
the blues the pensioners the pride of
london
this stadium holds 41 837
but you'd be forgiven for thinking that
it holds significantly more
so when you come towards the stadium i'm
here outside the britannia gates
it looks as big and imposing as it does
on the tv
especially here at the west stand
there's plenty of things to see
such as this cool banner and be sure to
check out the main statue
on the west stand yes this is the giant
statue of one of the greatest heroes
mr pete osgood anyway to start the tour
you'll need to go
to your left and towards the stadium
tours and museum building
right here now you could buy tickets on
the day but i highly recommend that you
pre-book
once you pick up your tickets you get a
cool photo opportunity
with two european cups let's see how
these look
at oh my god i've grown a good
seriously is that how i look go through
the circular tunnel
and up the lift and you'll come out into
the chelsea museum
where it was pretty obvious that i'm
wearing the wrong color
what's wrong with this honestly it was
light-hearted banter
but there's this one lady right here who
obviously didn't approve of my choice of
garments
oh well moving on it's actually quite an
expansive museum
there's plenty of things to see such as
this scale model of stamford bridge
when it was originally built stafford
bridge in its current configuration
there's even a model of what stanford
bridge is going to look like
in the future huh that's an interesting
design
the best part of the museum is actually
looking at the amount of silverware that
they've won
so their five premier league trophies
which is still eight shorts of
manchester united's
and their eight fa cups which is still
six shorts of
arsenal's no disrespect but still a
pretty good haul
trophies that i've never even heard of i
mean what's this thing here
international champions cup huh that's a
funny looking cup
have a look at the wall of shirts and
it's easy to forget that they've had
some amazing kits over the years
they've even got a video presentation
wall
the tour actually starts in the museum
one of the more unique things that i've
never come across
is that here you get photo opportunities
with match worn items
so here's mason mount game war england
shirt which is
kind of cool you get a short talk
about the champions league winning
season in 2012 so here's the cup
and here are all the game-worn shirts
and boots which makes an
awesome display you also get a talk
about various things that you may have
missed whilst walking around yourself
such as the fact that chelsea originally
wore teal not royal blue
and the fact that chelsea traditionally
attracts celebrity fans
boy she was a bonnie girl back in the
day after a short talk about the future
of chelsea football club
it's now time to go down the stairs out
of the building
and into the matthew harding stand where
you'll go by flight of steps
and actually look at the stadium for the
first time
now the sight lines here are actually
pretty good but
for some reason you don't stay here an
awful lot in fact
we're moving already so if you are going
to take photos and videos
especially if you want to take it from
the matthew harding stand be very quick
about it
but whilst walking towards the middle of
the stadium you can appreciate the fact
that
this stadium has some pretty damn good
views
and yes they put the green dots there
because of covid
now for some reason we don't stay here
for very long in the middle of the pitch
either so i think there's something that
he's leading us to
but if you're quick enough you can get
all the photos and videos you can
just from the short walk between the
matthew harding stan and the middle of
the field
anyway down the steps you go and into
the press room
traditionally this is where all the
press conferences happen but because of
kovid
they've actually repurposed this to be
the player's massage
area but this doesn't detract from the
fact that this
is actually a cool room and when things
return to normal i'm sure it'll be a
press room again
you even get photo opportunities with
you sitting in the press conference area
thanks dude after you've done that it's
time to walk into the player interview
area
which believe it or not is a lot smaller
than you think it is
next up is the home changing room and
boy
is this how big it is it's massive
this is bigger than two changing rooms
put together
i mean even the warm up area is massive
seriously the camera angle here really
doesn't do it justice
it's pretty palatial in here once you
walk into the dressing room
feel free to take lots of pictures of
all the shirts that are hanging on the
wall
and check out chelsea's new kit for this
season
i've seen better ones and yes i am
laughing hysterically
behind my mask at this guy
this is a very nicely presented dressing
room and pay attention to the tour guide
because he tells you some very
interesting facts about this place
so after checking out the shower
facilities it's now time to go into the
players tunnel
and walk out onto the field to the tune
of chelsea's walk-on music
so
and by the way don't forget to wave at
the camera because
20 seconds later it appears on the big
screen
just like this guy check out this loser
right here
future in here you're halfway through
the video and let me tell you about the
upcoming competition to win this chelsea
goodie bag
that i bought at the chelsea club shop
stick around until the end of the video
to find out more but in the meantime
back to the tour so the views from the
middle of the field are actually quite
incredible
you get to sit in the chelsea dugout or
the away teams dugout if you want to
and i'm tempted to run into the middle
of the field not because i want to touch
the grass but because it's
blazing hot today seriously it's like 35
degrees celsius out there
and it is boiling
but anyway there's plenty of cool stuff
to see whilst you're down here
be sure to check out some of the cool
signs and some of the interesting
banners
and this is a good opportunity to ask
your tour guide questions
speaking of tour guides let me introduce
you to len
len has been a proud servant of chassis
football club for over 21 years
and he was an excellent tour guide
not only was he incredibly knowledgeable
but we had a few bits of banter along
the way
straightforward black and white that's
it no don't can't do many jokes because
obviously
this will be online in around the world
and i've been here 21 years old
guy and then i lose my job because
clever guy
they did want to use old trafford but
they said it's just a little bit too far
if you do get len as part of your tour
honest to god you're going to have a
fantastic time
so anyway let's walk out of the sun
because we're all kind of dying here
it really is that hot out here today and
we walk
up one of the corners where the away
fans generally sit
to be honest if you're an away fan and
you sit here it's a pretty damn good
view
i mean look at that i'm actually
relieved to be out of the sun a little
bit here
and len actually gives us a little bit
of a talk about the various london
rivalries
you also get to find out a little bit
about their premier league winning
seasons
and you get to learn about the history
of the evolution of the chelsea badge
which from a graphic design point of
view i think they have one of the best
logos
in all the football but anyway no time
to admire that because
you then step out into the shed end this
is where all the fanatical chelsea
supporters sit
i can imagine that it gets pretty loud
here you get to learn some interesting
facts about the stadium here
and various photo opportunities it's
hard to imagine that this place only
holds 41
000 because it looks significantly
bigger than that
ask whatever questions you need to ask
because after that
it's pretty much the end of your tour
they'll lead you down the stairs
and out of the exits while you'll come
across the chelsea shop
hey how's it going all right
now the chelsea shop is actually pretty
damn cool
they've got lots of shirts for you to
buy if you're interested in that sort of
thing
and one of the cool things that the shop
has is that it has replicas
of the trophies that they've won
seriously they should include this in
more shops but
this is the only one i've seen it in
look at that display it's pretty damn
awesome
but before you go i highly recommend
that you take a walk around the stadium
you'll see some interesting cool things
like the shed wall
which is kind of like a hall of fame
with all of their greatest players
didi drogba ron chopper harris
boy he was a hell of a player and let's
see who we've got over here
oh it's a former arsenal player right
check out the hotel and the sports bar
and grill located on one side of the
stadium
and you can check out the player and
match officials entrances
as well chelsea health club and spa
they have one of those here oh my god
they do
it's right on site boy this place has
everything
okay nin i'm sold what do i need to do
well you need to come here
to stamford bridge it's situated in the
fulham district of london
yes fulham not chelsea and the easiest
way to get here is to actually use
fulham broadway tube station
if you get out of here stanford bridge
is literally a two minute walk down the
street
you can take buses and also drive here
but if you do drive here there's no free
parking so bear that in mind
if you are in a car the cost to do the
tours
well the top actually is reasonably
priced
it's 21 pounds but i decided to get the
extended classic tour
which was 26.25 or something like that
i highly recommend that for the extra
five pounds you actually get the classic
tour
is there anything else i need to know
yes the classic tour only runs once a
day at 10 past three
other tours are available throughout the
day so that's not too bad
there's a security guy over there
picking it very suspiciously as if to
say well
i've just literally been kicked out of
stamford bridge not because i've done
anything wrong of course but
just had some overzealous security guard
future in here i actually mouth off
quite significantly in this part of the
video
in short an overzealous security guard
approached me
we had this conversation now i was only
recording this section against the wall
so i'm not entirely sure what his
problem was i didn't kick up a fuss
hence why i'm looking so cheesed off in
this part of the video
and you might be saying well rules are
rules but i actually asked these two
kind security guards if i could do this
before i actually started
so it's not as if i didn't ask so i'm
not entirely sure what that guy's
problem was
but it's resulted in some serious
downgrade points
so where does this rank in the hierarchy
of stadium tours it should be higher
but it's not it only takes one person to
ruin your day
but overall him aside i actually had a
fantastic time here
if you do do the tour i still highly
recommend it
and if you do get len as your tour guide
you're in for a fantastic time
