Goals from Liam Mandeville and Jim Kellermann gave the Spireites a 2-0 win over Salford City and a ticket to the FA Cup third round.
Mandeville got the festivities running in the 27th minute for the 945 travelling fans with a thunderous strike before Kellermann sealed the result with five minutes to go.
Luke Croll almost popped up with an eighth minute openeer when he met Miller's cross. His header forced Tom King into a fine stop.
Scott Loach was called into action when he originally spilled Josh Morris' free-kick before also scrambling the ball away before Tom Elliot steamed in.
The Chesterfield goalkeeper saved his side again just seven minutes later when he denied Jordan Turnball's header.
However, Mandeville gave the National League side the lead when he let fly from 25-yards and his piledriver struck the bar before bouncing over the line.
Salford immediately looked for an equaliser but found the back three of the Blues hard to pass and the scoreline stayed the same going into the break.
The home side came inches away from an equaliser just three minutes into the second half as Turnbull directed Liam Shephard's corner towards the goalmouth, but the ball strayed wide of the goal.
Top scorer Kabongo Tshimanga was kept relatively quiet during the game but almost added to his scoring streak. Unfortunately for the striker, he failed to connect with a header inside the box.
With five minutes to go, the tie was put to bed. Tshimanga made his way through on goal, but had to make a diversion away from the net after a heavy touch. He smartly found Kellermann down the by-line, who hammered the ball past King from the tightest of angles.
The rest of the game was merely a formality as the Spireites enjoyed uninterrupted possession and even brought Jack Clarke on as he returned from injury.
The full time whistle brought wild scenes from the travelling Chesterfield fans and team alike with James Rowe at the head leading the celebrations.
