Sure. I saw a woman knitting a huge scarf on the subway. But she got so into it that she accidentally knitted her bag to the scarf. When she tried to get off at her stop, she couldn't separate them easily and had to tug at it while everyone watched and some even chuckled.
Sure. There's the story of the "Track 6 Ghost." A maintenance worker once reported seeing a shadowy figure on Track 6 late at night. He thought it was another worker at first, but as he got closer, the figure just disappeared. He later found out that a man had died on that track many years ago in a freak accident. Since then, other workers have also claimed to have had strange encounters in the same area.
Once, I saw a man on the NYC subway who was doing yoga poses in the middle of the crowded carriage. He was completely unfazed by the stares and just carried on with his downward dogs and tree poses. It was hilarious and also quite impressive how he managed to balance without falling over.
Sure. Once I saw a man on the subway who was trying to balance a dozen balloons while holding a coffee. As the subway jerked, he let go of the coffee to save the balloons. The coffee spilled all over the floor and the balloons flew everywhere, making everyone around him laugh.
There have been cases of pickpockets operating in the NYC subways. One person told me how they felt a hand in their pocket and when they turned around, they saw a group of shady - looking individuals. They managed to scare them off, but it was a very frightening experience. It makes people always on edge when they're on the subway, having to constantly watch out for their belongings.
Sure. There was a story where a man saw a pair of glowing eyes at the end of the subway tunnel as the train was approaching. He thought it was some kind of animal at first, but as the train got closer, the eyes just disappeared. He couldn't explain what it was and it gave him the chills every time he thought about it.
Sure. There was a time when a street performer in NYC was imitating a famous movie character so well that a dog started following him around, thinking he was its owner. It was hilarious to see the performer trying to shoo the dog away while still keeping in character.
Well, there was this time when a little boy on the subway thought the handrail was a monkey bar. He started swinging on it while his mother was chasing after him, looking both embarrassed and amused at the same time. People around were all smiling at the cute scene.
Sure. Once I saw a guy on the subway who was trying to do yoga poses in the standing area. He was wobbling all over the place as the train moved, but he was so focused. Everyone around was trying hard not to laugh out loud.
Sure. There was this one time at Subway. A young woman came in and she was clearly very hungry. She ordered a meatball sub. As the staff was putting on the sauce, she was so excited that she accidentally knocked over the cup of water on the counter. The water splashed all over the sandwich - making area. But instead of getting upset, she just laughed and said 'Well, now it's a wet and wild meatball sub!'. The staff quickly remade her sandwich and she enjoyed it thoroughly.
Sure. Once there was a man who went to a pet store to buy a parrot. He saw a beautiful parrot with a sign that said, 'This parrot can repeat every word it hears.' So he bought it. When he got home, he started talking to the parrot, but the parrot didn't say a word. He returned to the store and told the owner. The owner said, 'Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot to tell you. He's deaf.'
