WASHINGTON — A New York City rat experienced a true case of the Mondays when it lost its battle to bring home a slice of pizza.
Comedian Matt Little posted a video to YouTube on Monday of the rat struggling with its would-be prize on the steps of a subway station. By early Tuesday, the 15-second video had nearly a million views, and #pizzarat had achieved a taste of Internet fame.
Aren’t we all just a bunch of rats dragging slices of pizza down the stairs? #Pizzarat

In the next video, #PizzaRat goes out drinking all night, then gets a second slice.

Spoiler alert: The rat appears to get spooked and ditches the pizza — just two steps from the bottom of the stairs!
