THE FREE FOOTBALL TICKET

A guy named Bob received a free ticket to the Georgia/Florida game from his
company.  Unfortunately, when he arrived at the stadium, he realized the seat 
was in the last row in the corner of the stadium way back in the
South Stands-- he was closer to the Goodyear blimp than to the field.

About halfway through the first quarter, he noticed an empty seat 10 rows
off the field, right on the 50 yard line. He decided to take a chance and 
made his way down 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."

Now, very excited to have such a great seat for the game, Bob said, "That's
incredible! Who in their right mind would have a seat like this at the 
Georgia/Florida game 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 game we haven't 
been to together since we got married in 1967."

"Well, that's really sad.", said Bob. "But you couldn't find a friend or
relative to come with you?"

The man replied, "No. They're all at the funeral."
