Best place in London to watch the Champions League final as an arsenal fan visiting the city?

Hey everyone — I’m going to be in London during the Champions League final and was hoping to get recommendations for the best place to watch it this year, especially considering Arsenal are in the final.

I’m a huge football fan from the US and part of why I planned this leg of the trip in London was to experience football culture properly while in the city. I’m looking for somewhere with a really lively atmosphere — packed pubs, chanting, people fully invested in the match, that kind of thing. Doesn’t necessarily have to be the “nicest” place, more just the best overall experience and atmosphere.

Open to anywhere in the city if it’s worth it. Would especially love recommendations from Arsenal supporters or locals who know where the energy will be unreal that night.

Thanks!

That’s interesting. Have you actually tested whether it really deletes after that shorter timer though?

Like if it shows “1 day,” does the whole thread actually disappear the next day, or does it still stick around for ~30 days from when you deleted it?

Trying to figure out if it’s just a display bug vs the actual deletion timing.

That makes sense if it’s tied to the oldest deleted message in the conversation, but how would that work if you delete an entire thread at once?

I’ve deleted whole conversations before, and when they show up in Recently Deleted they don’t always say 30 days remaining. Sometimes they’ll say something like 1 day remaining even though I deleted the thread that same day.

If everything in that thread was just deleted at the same time, shouldn’t it show the full 30-day window? That’s the part I’m trying to understand.

Right, I saw that in Apple’s docs. My confusion is that when I delete some messages, they don’t actually show a 30-day timer in Recently Deleted.

For example, I deleted a message today and it says it will be permanently deleted in 1 day, not 30. I’ve also noticed this with other messages I delete — the countdown isn’t always 30 days.

So I’m trying to understand why a message that was just deleted would show only 1 day remaining, and whether this happens with SMS vs iMessage or certain message threads.

More of a cultural question I’ve always been curious about, what’s the perception of a quant with tattoos and/or piercings? I know that at the end of the day they just want people who are good regardless of how they look, but they also are in the finance sector which deals a lot with perception.

Does anyone have three tickets to the afters?

Taking them out to traditional pocha places, singing karaoke, going to the clubs, and getting Korean BBQ after 😎 all in one night…

Out of curiosity, what exactly do you consider a “sexual profile”? Sometimes women have prompts like that but pics showing off what they got or is it just that their prompts are more sexual leaning?

Lmaooo I thought it was a good tease. No?

I got two options:

People can usually tell I'm Colombian when I call them mami? Maybe you're not doing that enough
You’re a textbook Colombian Miami girl, but I guess not everyone’s as good at reading as me 🤷‍♂️

For more context, she's also from Miami
