According to Jax, who was staying at the Blackpool FC Stadium Hotel with her daughters, the behind-the-scenes surprise was so “crazy” that none of them could believe it at first.
“We have just arrived at our hotel in Blackpool – and from our window we can see a football match,” said the shocked mother before closing the curtains.
The now viral clip, which has received more than 1.5 million views in one day, then shows the surprising view outside Really was as if – and even TikTok users were stunned.
Although many thought Jax meant she could see the famous stadium, there was actually a game going on right before her eyes.
“I think it’s Blackpool (FC) and someone else is playing. It’s crazy, isn’t it?”
The video shows hundreds of football fans who were apparently unaware that there were hotel guests behind them, watching the game from behind the window.
Attentive sports fans noticed that this was a game against “the mighty Stockport County” which took place on Saturday.
Unfortunately for Blackpool FC fans, their team lost, with Stockport Country FC scoring three goals.
According to Jax, the windows were not tinted, so when fans turned around they could see into their hotel room.
“I don’t follow football, but the girls were excited when we walked in the room and watched the game,” Jax said later in the comments.
Located on Seasiders Way, Blackpool FC Stadium Hotel is a member of Radisson Individuals and offers comfortable rooms with spectacular views of the famous Bloomfield Road Stadium – the perfect gift for any big football fan.
The hotel offers different room types to suit your budget, such as the Standard Room, the Superior Room with Field View and the Two-Bedroom Suite.
Not only can guests enjoy the exciting game, but they also have access to the spa and a delicious breakfast buffet to start the day – and you can even bring your pets.
