The Oprah Winfrey Show  |  January 01, 2006
Ashtian and Mrs. Adeniyi take their seats.

Recently, Oprah made a teacher's day just by sitting down. Mrs. Adeniyi had reserved an "Oprah-only chair" in her classroom for six years, hoping Oprah would visit one day. No one even thought of sitting in that chair—until her student Ashtian sent an e-mail to The Oprah Show.

The school's principal packed up the "Oprah chair" and shipped it to Chicago. Then Mrs. Adeniyi watched via satellite as Oprah finally took her reserved seat.

Oprah returned the favor, reserving front row seats to a taping of The Oprah Show for Mrs. Adeniyi and Ashtian…and they've come all the way from Texas to claim them!
