A guy named Gene receives a free ticket to an Alabama
game from his
company. Unfortunately, when ole Gene arrives at the stadium he realizes the seat is in the last row in the corner of the stadium - - - he is closer to the Goodyear blimp than the field. About halfway through the first quarter, ole Gene notices an empty seat 10 rows of the field right on the 50 yard line. 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, he 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, ole Gene again inquires of the man next to him, "This is incredible! Who in their right mind would have a seat like this at an Alabama game 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 Alabama game we haven't been to together since we got
married in 1967."
"Well, that's really sad," says ole Gene, "but still, couldn't you find someone to take the seat? A relative or a close friend?" "No," the man replies, "they're all at the funeral."
