A man had tickets to the FA Cup Final. As he sits down, a man comes
down and asks if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him.
"No," he says. "The seat is empty."
"This is incredible," said the man. "Who in their right mind would
have a seat like this for the FA Cup Final and not use it?"
He says "Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to
come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first FA Cup Final
we haven't been to together since we got married in 1967."
"Oh...I'm sorry to hear that. That's terrible. But couldn't you find
someone else - a friend or relative, or even a neighbour to take the
seat?"
The man shakes his head. "No. They're all at the funeral."
