A 71-year-old Swiss fan who travelled to Milan to watch his team FC Basel play Inter Milan in a champions league qualifying game at the San Siro Stadium on August 24, 2004 ended up sleeping rough for more than ten years after getting lost at the end of the of the match.
Swiss Pensioner Rolf Bantle, said he became disoriented after going to the toilet in the stadium and could not find his friends.
He was reported missing after losing his way at the end of the Champions League qualifying game, which his team lost 4-1.
He said: 'I was suddenly in a different sector. I had about €20 in my pocket and no phone so I wandered into Milan.
'People gave me food and cigarettes, and one student offered me a sleeping bag.'
He took showers once a week in a public washroom and frequently visited the local library, he told the newspaper.
He was only returned home after falling and breaking his femur and hospital workers spotted he had no health insurance and contacted the Swiss consulate.
Mr Bantle is now living in a retirement home in Basel, where his remarkable story has finally emerged.
Nawaooo, is it that he forgot his address?
