It is weird to ask a guy, you know his father just died, - can we use your tickets? - It is kind of tacky to do that.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Huh.
Still, I mean it doesn't hurt to ask.
It might be a way to What do you do, just call him up and say, "Hey?" "Marty, I know you're still in mourning" Right.
I'm sure you're still in "Marty, I know you're still in mourning, but is there any" "I feel your grief, but are you gonna use those tickets?" "Marty, just so your tickets don't go to waste.
" There's no good way to go about it, none.
