Subway Rat 'Pole Dances' and Horrifies Passengers

Own The Conversation

Because 2016 is officially your younger cousin who eats his own boogers for attention, here's a rat doing a sexy, sexy pole dance on the New York City Subway.

The video, uploaded by the New York Post, was reportedly shot at about 3 am on a train to Queens. That's literally all anyone seems to know about it, as even the Post uploaded it without further commentary.

It's been a big year for New York's rats, as even the acclaimed "pizza rat" was popular enough to warrant a sexy Halloween costume. "Warrant" is a strong word, but, you know.

This is still not the most disgusting thing having to do with a Subway this year, but there's still time.

Drop This Fact

Subway cars were painted all white in 1981 in an effort to stop graffiti, which worked out about as well as you'd imagine.
