Random Act of Kindness

Last night a friend and I went to the last Fresno State Women's Basketball Game. We had just got into line to buy our tickets when a guy comes up behind us and asks, "Are you buying tickets?"

"Yes, we're buying tickets."

"Just the two of you? Do you want some suite tickets?"

"Umm...no, we're ok. We like the regular seats."

"You don't have to sit in the suite if you don't want to."

"Well, are you sure?"

"Yeah, I won 4 tickets but I'm just here by myself."

"Wow, thanks!"

My first reaction was that this guy was trying to scalp some tickets, but no, he just wanted to give away some extra tickets. He was just being friendly. Maybe I shouldn't have immediately assumed he was up to something fishy, but I was so glad it just turned out to be someone doing something nice. Kind of makes me feel a little bit better about the world.
