Superbowl Ticket
Bob received a free ticket to the Superbowl from
his company. Unfortunately, when Bob arrived 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, Bob noticed
an empty seat 10 rows off the field right on the 50
yard line. He decided to take a chance and makes
his way through the stadium and around the security
guards to the empty seat.
As he sat down, he asked the gentleman sitting next
to him, "Excuse me, is anyone sitting here?"
The man said, "No."
Very excited to be in such a great seat for the game,
Bob said to 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 replied, "Well, actually, the seat belongs to
me, I was supposed to come with my wife, but she
passed away. This is the first Superbowl we haven't
been to together since we got married in 1967."
"That's really sad," says Bob, "but still, couldn't you
find someone to take the seat? A relative or a close
friend?"
"No," the man replied, "they're all at the funeral."
