About WholeArsed

At some time in the past 20 years, from my home in the Chicago area, I fell in love with Arsenal, a London-based Premier League soccer club. Before the 2015-16 season, a share of season tickets fell into my lap and, in this blog, I chronicled my obsession and family adventures in London and back in Chicago.

I gave up the share for 2016-17, but just couldn’t stick with the decision as the share somehow didn’t manage to find new hands. What could I do? There it was, orphaned.

I gave it up “for good” at the end of 2017, when I moved to California.

All right…. After moving back to Chicago during the pandemic, I’ve managed to attend quite a few matches since then and it’s clear I can’t really put it behind me, not forever, anyway.

Join me in my travels to London during the season in which Arsenal are sure to repeat winning the Premiership (I’ve waited so so long to type that).

Really.
Stop smirking!
