This YouTube video has it all: a highly intoxicated person, an unsteady documenter, very little information, no closure, and an MGMT soundtrack. The footage was uploaded last night, and we’ve contacted the uploader to get more details about the scenario. But until we hear back, let’s discuss: should the fellow straphangers have made more of a hands-on effort to help this guy out? Or were they all (except for the MTA worker who has a brief interaction with him) too drunk from the big game, too? [ more › ]

Those of you who ditch the office for the weekend at 3 p.m. on Fridays on the pretense of “picking up some of those sour candy straws”: the MTA is on to you. A recent report co-authored by an MTA researcher shows that bus service on Fridays between noon and 3 p.m. experiences a “mini-surge,” but drops off later in the evening for a 5% total dip in customers.
