I love this gag. It's a good example of the importance of Aussie Rules Football to Melbournians...
A man arriving for the Grand Final in Melbourne is surprised to find the seat besdie him empty. Tickets fot the Grand Final are sold out weeks in advance and an empty seat is unknown. So he says to the man on the other side of the empty seat: 'Excuse me, do you know why there is no one in this seat?'
'It was my wife's,' answers the second man, a touch wistfully, 'but I'm afraid she died.'
'Oh, that's terrible. I'm so sorry.'
'Yes, she never missed a match.'
'But couldn't you have given the ticket to a friend or relative?'
'Oh no. They're all at the funeral.'
@ Sureboss: Good one! =D

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was. When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen.
He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling. "Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!?!?" he yelled with surprising forcefulness.
No one answered. "Alright, I'm gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain't back outside by the time I finish, I'm gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I don't like to have to do what I dun in Texas!"
Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word, had another beer, walked outside, and his horse has been returned to the post. He saddled up and started to ride out of town.
The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say partner, before you go... what happened in Texas?"
The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home."
