It's Been a Long Day

We've just come back from our break, and about five minutes after the announcement that cards should be in the air, we were greeted with, "Players in today's $1,500 event, can I have your attention?" which was quite a surprise, as we weren't expecting an announcement about anything in particular.

"We have a player who has lost his table. He's can't remember where he was seated before the break. If you recognize this player from before the break, please help us get him to his seat."

The remaining 280 players here all began to chuckle, thinking it to be a joke. But it wasn't. There was a man standing near the TD desk who needed to be pointed the right direction. After just a few moments, the kind players at table Blue 16 signaled that his seat was with them, and he made his way in their direction.

While walking to take his seat, the crowd let out a little applause that the lost poker player had found his way.
