Two Belgian men have reportedly revealed they spent 27 hours hiding in a toilet inside Munich’s Allianz Arena in order to see the UEFA Champions League final last weekend for free.
According to BBC, Neal Remmerie and Senne Haverbeke informed Belgian network VRT News that they were able to enter the stadium a day before the game, and then come out to witness Paris St-Germain defeat Inter Milan 5-0.
Before they waited in silence for almost a day as stadium employees used the facilities, the two posted an external video to the social media platform TikTok showing them putting a homemade “out of order” sign on the doors of two restroom cubicles.
“We had a backpack with snacks and we played around on our phones to kill time,” Remmerie said.

“The lights were on all the time and the sitting position was uncomfortable, so sleeping was almost impossible. That made it physically and mentally difficult.”
On the final matchday, the pair came out of hiding and passed another ticket check before sitting in a stand as soon as they heard fans using the restrooms.
“We looked carefully at which security guard was paying the least attention. While on the phone and with food in our hands, we just walked on, and suddenly we were inside,” Remmerie added.
“PSG won 5-0 and we were also in the supporters’ section of the winning team. It was the most beautiful football match we have ever seen.”
