It's the Australian Football League Grand Final, the culmination of the football season, and a man makes his way to his seat right behind the goal square. He sits down, noticing that the seat next to him is empty. As it is close to start time 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 Grand 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 Grand Final we haven't been to together since we got married in 1979".

"Oh ... I'm sorry to hear that. That's terrible. But couldn't you find someone else, a friend or relative, or even a neighbour to take the seat?"

The man shakes his head and says "No, they're all at the funeral."
