The man had a chance to buy a ticket for the final of the international cricket competition in London. He bought the ticket, well in advance, which is just as well, as the prices went up and up nearer the time. Anyway, he arrived at the stadium, he took his seat just as the match was about to begin. He looked to his side and there was an empty seat. He turned to the man who was sitting next to it and said: "Gosh, it's amazing, here it is, an empty seat. Somebody paid an awful lot of money for this and they haven't actually turned up."
The man said: "Well, I actually bought the ticket. It was really for my wife, but unfortunately she died."
The man turned to him and said: "Oh, gosh, I'm awfully sorry to hear about that. But, but, you know, tell me, couldn't you have given the ticket to a friend or relation?"
The man turned to him and said: "Well, they're all at the funeral!"
