A Super Bowl Ticket

A guy named Brent receives a free ticket to the Super Bowl from his
company.

Unfortunately, when Brent arrives at the stadium, he realizes the seat
is in the last row

in the corner of the stadium. He's closer to the Goodyear Blimp than
the field.

About halfway through the first quarter, Brent sees through his
binoculars an empty seat

10 rows off the field right on the 50 yardline. 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, Brent 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, Brent again
inquires of the man next to him,

"This is incredible!  Who in their right mind would have a seat like
this at the Super Bowl 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 at since we got married in 1968."

"Well, that's really sad," said Brent, "but still, you couldn't find
anyone to take the seat? A friend or close relative"?

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