The Concert

An older man lay sprawled across three entire seats at a concert. 

When the usher came by and noticed this, he whispered to him,

"Sorry sir, but you're only allowed one seat."

He didn't budge.

The usher became more impatient.

"Sir, if you don't get up from there I'm going to have to call the manager."

Once again, the older man just muttered and did nothing.

The usher marched briskly back up the aisle, and in a moment he returned with the manager.

Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move the older-disheveled man but with no success.     
Finally they summoned the police.

The officer surveyed the situation briefly and then said, "All right buddy what's your name?"

"Fred," the man managed to moan.

"Where you from, Fred?" said the police officer.

With a terrible strain in his voice, and without moving, Fred replied;



"The balcony...."
