What's the most memorable place you've watched it in?
For me it'd be the 2010 final, campervan at Silverstone, at the end of the British GP weekend. Laptop set up with the game on, all in deckchairs, el vino did flow. We can hear them across the lake in the bar area, cheering ooo-ing and aaah-ing along with the action.
But every so often, there's a second or two of lag in our signal, so slowly but surely we're getting further behind the live action. So we'd knew that Spains attack was going to result in a goal as we'd heard it about 15 seconds earlier

2006 final I was watching it from the comfort of a leather sofa in the Bulldog Hostel in Amsterdam whilst completely stoned and enjoying a game of chess.
Went to my room afterwards and let the girl I was with smoke my pipe...

Have been fortunate to have attended every final in person right back to the 1986 final in Mexico.

Wembley, 1966. You cannot beat watching your team win the World Cup.

I was listening to Sam Allardyce who spoke of watching the ‘66 Final from his living room (or something of that order) with his parents. Jolly forthright and decent of Sam to admit he was in a usual place for the big match like the vast majority of us. That’s unlike some of these pundits who just happened to have been be right behind the goal in the front row on occasions like this every time.

And the tens of thousands who were at the Sxe Pistols gig in Manchester ten years later.
