Olden but golden:
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
the guy 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!'
