...'cause it is exactly the kind of conversation you would hear there:
Yankee fan #1: What do you like better -- hot dogs or hamburgers?

MTA guy cleaning platform: No, don't tell me nothin'. I don't wanna know nothin'.
--7 train platform, Woodside

And, not to sound elitist but, if someone's sweeping a subway platform for a living, and is doubly reluctant to say something if they see something, I'm sure the former, un-coincidentally, probably has something to do with the latter.
