OK. I wanted to take this time to apologize to the MTA and everyone that was on the uptown #1 train on Thursday night 4/25 around 11:30 pm. It has been over a week now and I am still feeling guilty for being a drunken fool on the train. I had stopped by my favorite vodka establishment for a cocktail or two before a farewell party for a friend.
Six-apple martinis and two beers at the farewell party I thought I was ok to take the train home. Not so my friends, not so. I do not quite remember my train ride home except for the bit about me riding between the train cars puking.
So if I offended or puked on anyone out there I am truly sorry and promise this will never happen again. I learn a valuable lesson - Drink responsibly and you will not find yourself walking the extra 10 blocks to take a different subway line.
I realize this might not be a “good” subway story but I hope it will help some of the kids out there. Please do not let your friends go home drunk alone. You could at least go home with them and write about it.
