Traveling boot

In rolled the 5:20 tonight into Union and despite all of you jokers clearly noticing the wayward boot occupying a seat on the first car of the upper level, none of you could bring yourselves to remove it and tuck it under the seat. So here's this crowded train and the only seat available has a boot on it that looks like the one the Friendly Giant wore. I contemplated being the one to remove it until this little elderly lady came up the stairs and spotted the seat with the boot. Picking it up, she examined it and then said to the people occupying the seat next to her and those opposite her, "Thanks for saving me a seat," and threw the boot under her.

You go on with your bad self.
