A man had a great seat for the World Cup final.
As he sits down, he notices that there is a vacant seat between him and the next guy. He asks the guy 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 World Cup final, the biggest sporting event in the year, and not use it?"
He says, "Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. My wife was supposed to come with me, but she passed away a few days ago. This is the first World Cup Final we haven't been together since we got married".
"Oh. I'm sorry to hear that. That's terrible. I guess you couldn't find someone else, a friend or relative or even a neighbour to take the seat?"
The man shakes his head and answers: "No. They're all at the funeral..."
