A man receives a free ticket to the Super Bowl from his company.
Unfortunately, when he arrives at the stadium he realizes the seat is
in the last row in the corner of the stadium - he is closer to the
Goodyear Blimp than the field. About halfway through the first quarter
he notices an empty seat 10 rows off the field right on the 50 yard
line. He decides to take a chance and makes his way through the
stadium and around the security guards to the empty seat. As he sits
down, he asks the gentleman sitting next to him, "Excuse me, is anyone
sitting here?" The man replies "No". Now, very excited to be in such a
great seat for the game, he again inquires of the man next to him,
"This is incredible! Who in their right mind would have a seat like
this at the Super Bowl and not use it?"
The man replies, "Well, actually, the seat belongs to me, I was
supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first
Super Bowl we haven't been together at since we got married in 1942."
"Well, that's terribly sad. But still, couldn't you find someone
to take the seat? A relative or close friend?"
"No," the man replied, "they're all at the funeral."
