A naked subway-rider made the cover of the New York Post after fashion magazine editor Peter Davis snapped a picture of the dozing drunk on Thursday.

The naked man's drink of choice: Jack Daniel's whiskey.
“He was just really drunk," Davis told the Post. "He would swig it and then nod out. He must’ve taken four swigs in four stops.”
Davis said the nude man rode from at least six stops on Thursday evening, and in a train full of other passengers, some people were frightened — and others just accepted it as part of the Big Apple.
“I think people were scared of him," Davis said. "The one thing people did was move away from him like he was dangerous. There were a lot of blasé New Yorkers that looked — and then looked back at their iPhone as if he wasn’t even there.”
The Post made the obligatory comparison to "Seinfeld," and noted that transit authorities didn't seem to have any reports related to a naked subway rider.
