(humorous story)

Football fans, Peter and Vasya, were fortunate enough to have season tickets to watch “Dynamo Kyiv.” They could not help noticing that there was always a spare seat next (B15) to them and they had a friend who would love to buy a season ticket, especially if all three could have seats together.

One day, Peter went to the ticket office and asked if they could buy the season ticket for B15. The sales clerk said that unfortunately the ticket had been sold. Nevertheless, a week after week the seat was still empty.

Once upon a time, on a great football day, much to Vasya`s and Peter`s astonishment, the seat was taken for the first time that season. Peter could not resist asking the newcomer, “Where have you been all season?”  “Don’t ask me, buddy,” he said. “My wife bought the season ticket several months ago and kept it for a surprise New Year present. Thank God I found it while seeking her nest egg.”
