An alleged true story from an Arsenal season-ticket
holder

His season-ticket last year was an absolute plum seat
half way up the
Highbury main stand close to the half-way line. In
other words, a TV
camera style view.

Anyway, after the first few games of the season it
became apparent that
despite all the home games being sell-outs, the two
seats on his left
were always empty. This continued until just after
Christmas when all of
a sudden a guy and his young son appeared there.

After a few weeks of sitting next to this guy and his
son, he decided to
ask if the guy knew why the seats had been empty for
half the season.
The response is legendary:

'Yeah don't even go there mate. The wife bought me and
my son a season
ticket but decided it would be a nice idea to give us
them for
Christmas. I was f***in' raging!'
