Tourist hangs bag on MTR handle to Hong Kong netizens’ amusement

The MTR is the one experience that binds all Hongkongers together, so when someone takes a photo of anything remotely funny on the train, it will get shared on the interwebz.

A foreigner was spotted giving his shoulders some respite by hanging his backpack on a train handle with a hook that he apparently carries around for occasions like this.

 

嗯,呢個袋一係就有人諗住吊高嚟賣返出去,一係就係失物認領處等畀傻更更on99嘅主人拎返啦(應該係)。讀者來圖:Sabrina Criss===============================純港產法式旋轉型生活潮流雜誌《…

This caption, shared by local magazine 100most, jokes that “this must either be on display for re-sale or the lost and found department is waiting for the bag’s stupid owner to claim it”.

The top comment features a photo of a roast duck on a hook, saying: “He too thought he’d just hang for a bit, little did he know it’d be for his whole life”. 

Another commenter adds: “If there are lots of free handles next to him, then it’s not a big deal.” 

The photo has accumulated over 2,500 “likes” on Facebook since getting posted yesterday.
