    Nothing that crazy I guess, but two events I remember:

    • A small fire broke out next to the tracks and the train driver actually stopped the train and got out to extinguish it

    • A train busker played so loudly and terribly that a group of random passengers got together to shove him out of the train at the next station.

        Yeah, I hadn’t heard any buskers on the Stockholm metro for years until a few weeks ago when a guy I had seen earlier busking, came onboard again with his weird wooden box with metal strings that is played with two hooked sticks and started playing.

        There are places where this is common. They hope to get paid (I assume to get them to leave). Sometimes they’re accompanied by pick-pockets who pray on the distracted.

          Assholes, they’re basically extorting people to stop the annoying shit and to get them to fuck off
