World Series
During a recent world series, a man noticed that there was a vacant seat next to the man beside him. He commented that it was unbelievable that someone would spend so much on a ticket and not turn up for the match.
The man next to him said that it was for his wife. They had bought the tickets months in advance but unfortunately she died and could not make it. "Why didn't you give the ticket to your family member or a friend?" the man asked.
"Can't do that," the other man said. "Why not?" the first man wanted to know.
"They're at the funeral," came the reply.
