Nobody has ever paid a lot for A’s tickets.

That’s Clyde, always thinking of himself.

Too soon, Clyde. Maybe in another twenty years…

From what I know of Andy, yes, he would have wanted you to.

Funny. Sick, but still funny. Andy would have tried to laugh.

Clyde was acting like a self-centered jerk even then, so you KNOW that he became a rabid Republican 40 years down the road!

Joke here in Wisconsin, where Lambeau Field is always sold out for Packer games: A guy was sitting about 20 rows up on the 45-yard line and noticed that there was an empty seat in Row 3, and it stayed that way all thru the first half, meaning that the person wasn’t off to the bathroom or anything. So at halftime he ambled down and struck up a conversation with the guy in the adjacent seat.

“Oh, yeah, that’s the seat my wife always had, bless her heart. 45 years we came to these games together, until she passed.” And he kind of hung his head and shed a little tear.

“Sorry to hear that,” said the first fan. “But surely you must’ve had friends who would’ve loved to use her ticket to come to the game.”

“Oh, sure, that’s true, but they’re all at the funeral.”

Clyde, you should be asham… um, whatcha got in that thermos?

Only if the tickets are for a concert, Grateful Dead for sure.
