A guy named Bob receives a free ticket to the Super Bowl from his company. Unfortunately, when Bob arrives at the stadium he realizes the
seat is in the last row in the corner of the stadium and that he's closer to the Goodyear blimp than the field. About halfway through the first quarter, Bob 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 says, "No."
Now, very excited to be in such a great seat for the game, Bob againinquires the man next to him, "This is incredible! Who in their right
mind would have a seat like this at the SuperBowl 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, since we got married in 1967."
"Well, that's really sad," said Bob, "but still, couldn't you find
someone to take the seat? A relative or close friend?"
"No," the man replies, "they're all at the funeral."
