2009_10_gamepost.jpg

Game 6 will now be played tomorrow night at 8:20 p.m... up against the Giants-Cardinals football game.

Reader J W created this Sad Rat, noting that at least someone bought him a beer.

    Very stupid as dead,sad rats are Mets fans.

  • NannyState

    Are you kidding? Nobody wears a Mets hat this late in October.

    Marv Albert does baseball games, too?

  • Mr Mel

    Hey JW could we order pictures with the baseball cap of our choice?

    I rather have these posts than the hipster stuff posted here.

    We mere mortals are not worthy of such awesomeness! Photoshop Rat is much more entertaining than the old dead rat with a cigarette photo gothamist used to use.

  • John_Matrix

    you've stumbled on internet gold. make sad rat the official mascot of gothamist.

    Ugh.. seriously, stop! He was a living creature. It is so disrespectful. Would you do it if it was a cat or a dog? NO! Everyone here always freaks out when there are stories about pet abuse. What makes this rat any less deserving of compassion?

    "Would you do it if it was a cat or a dog?"



    Irrelevant, because it is not. It's a rat. It's also dead, so there's no need to worry about hurting its feelings.

  • StrawbrryF

    irrelevant?! how is that irrelevant?! what makes a feline or canine death sadder and less deserving of ridicule? do dogs or cats feel more pain or fear than a rat? in our final moments, we're all equally terrified.



    yes, the animal is dead so there's nothing we can do for him now, but how we treat the dead shows how we think of them while they're alive. and you're drawing completely arbitrary distinctions.

    yes.

  • valeriob

    I did! I even put the collection bucket...

  • evbo

    This photo is by far the best of the bunch. More photoshopped sad rat goodness! Please!

  • caroaber

    ROTFLMAO.

    But couldn't J W have made Sad Rat a Red Sox fan instead? Just sayin'.

  • whitecastlerock

    Awesome pic!

  • Quenepa

    LMFAO!!!! That is so rocking! lol

    Oh wow lol I saw the previous PS work - some was genius and some wasn't but it was all so creative lol

    I just got back and opened up Gothamist and saw this lol really well done lol

  • Mr. Bojangles

    Think it's time to give the rat a rest.

  • starrygordon

    No way. That rat is now the official mascot of the Gothamist. You're stuck with him forever.

  • resa

    Oh My God, Gothamist! Stop it with the poor dead rat stuck in the sidewalk! For all that is holy, stop!

  • NannyState

    Best one yet!
