I don't know why but I got a chuckle out of this when I read it. I think we have some members here that are almost as die hard.
True Football Fan:
Recently, I was at a professional football game supporting my favorite team. My seat wasn't the greatest, so when I noticed a vacant seat on the fifty yard line 10 rows up, I headed towards it. I asked the man sitting next to it if the seat was taken. He replied, "No".
I started talking to the man and I learned he owned the seat I was in. He said, "My wife use to love to come to these games until she died."
"Why didn't you give this seat away to a friend?" I asked.
He replied, "Because they are all at her funeral."
