a man makes his way to his
seat right next to the pitch.
He sits down, noticing that
the seat next to him is
empty. He leans over and asks his neighbour if
someone will be sitting
there. ‘No,’ says the
neighbour. ‘The seat is
empty.’ ‘This is incredible,’
said the man. ‘Who in their right mind would have a
seat like this for the
Final and not use it?’ The
neighbour says, ‘Well
actually the seat belongs to
me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she
passed away. This is the
first World Cup Final we
haven’t been to together
since we got married.’ ‘Oh,
I’m so sorry to hear that. That’s terrible….But couldn’t
you find someone else, a
friend, relative or even a
neighbour to take her seat?’
The man shakes his head.
‘No,’ he says. ‘They’re all at the funeral.’
