Sad Superbowl story (vanity)

Posted on 02/07/2016 1:27:47 PM PST by BridgeOutAhead

Settling unhappily into his Super Bowl seat, Himalayan high behind the end zone, Joe spots an empty seat low and on the 50-yard line.

He descends to it and asks the man seated next to him why the wonderful seat is unoccupied. The man says:

It's mine. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she died. This is the first Super Bowl since 1967 we have not attended together.

Joe says: But couldn't you find a friend or relative to come with you today?

The man replies: No, they're all at the funeral.

That’s almost as sad as having to hear Coldplay.

LOL! Okay, true story. A couple years ago Mrs. rktman and I went looking for .22lr. After several stores with no stock, we went in to another one and there on the counter was about 7500 rds of the stuff and I said, “We’ll take it.” We asked were they got it and a widow was apparently cleaning out her husbands stuff and brought it to this store that morning. We asked how long ago he passed away and they said according to the widow it had been 2 days ago. Thank you sir for contributing to my supply.

I went to the first Super Bowl while on military leave. I noticed many empty seats for some reason and my team(KC) lost bog time.

Same joke about
1. World Series—3rd base line seat
2. Stanley cup—ringside
3. NBA Final game—Courtside seat
4. Heavyweight campionship—Ringside 1st row
5. Indy 500-—Finish line.
6. Rose Bowl and on and on and on and on
Still brings a smile.

16th green sits next to a highway...
Man stops reading his putt and takes off his hat as a funeral passes by...One in the foursome says, “That was a very nice thing to do, Joe...”
Joe replies, “It’s the least I could do...That was my wife’s funeral procession...”

George Will just told that joke in the intro to his column today. He attributes it to “Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Thru Those Pearly Gates:” by Cathcart and Kline. I laughed....

My wife didn’t think it was funny until she started laughing.
