WATCH: Man Schleps Leather Sofa Onto Subway, Rides Train In Style
A man somehow managed to drag a leather sofa into the subway and transformed a train car into his living room, video shows.
GRAMERCY, NY — Talk about the best seat in the house.
A straphanger was caught on video schlepping a chocolate brown sofa onto a downtown 4 train at Union Square Monday evening. After just barely wedging the recliner into the train car, another video shows the man sprawled with his feet out and his head laid back on the cushy couch.
The creative commuter also has a walker resting on the cushion beside him.

One Reddit poster claimed to have spotted the man pushing the couch along the street earlier that day.
“Basically, that thing resting on the couch beside him is either a folded-up wheelchair or walker, I couldn’t tell, but he had the couch f---ing BALANCED on it on the back bottom edge, and was wheeling it down the sidewalk swearing loudly and jumping from one end to the other as it kept starting to tip off the tiny wheelchair thing,” wrote Reddit user AlterdCarbon.
