John won a free ticket to the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, his seat was high in the last row, closer to the Goodyear Blimp than to the game.
Early in the game, John spotted an empty seat just 10 rows up from the 50-yard line and decided to make his way down.
As he sat down, John asked the man next to him if anyone was sitting there and was assured that it was indeed empty.
John asked the man why in the world no one was using this great seat.
“It’s my wife’s seat, but she passed away,” the man replied. “This is the first Super Bowl that we’ve not attended together since we were married in 1968.”
Touched by the man’s story, John said, “That’s really sad. Couldn’t you find someone to go with you to the game … say, a close friend or relative?”
“No,” replied the man. “They’re all at her funeral!”
