New York City Subway Moment
A man stepped onto the subway at the 77th street station. “I am homeless,” he declared to the passengers in the train car. “Anything you can give will help: one cent, one nickel, one dime, one dollar.”
A woman across from him, standing up holding only a tennis racket said, “Would you like a banana?” and she proceeded to open a small compartment of her tennis racket case and took out a banana and handed it to him.

Yes, this is a very real NYC subway moment. The other day a much older man stood up and offered me, an older woman, his seat. I tried to refuse but he remarked, "Subway ettiquitte."
