Never Miss The World Cup

A man takes his seat at a world cup final. He looks to his left and notices that there is a spare seat between himself and the next guy.

MAN: Who would ever miss the world cup final?
GUY: That was my wife's seat. We have been to the last five world cup finals together, but sadly she passed away.
MAN: That's terrible, but couldn't you have brought another family member, friend or someone else with you?
GUY: No...they are all at the funeral!
