I never take a seat on transit when it's even remotely busy, there's no need for me at all. When I seat opens up next to me it's funny to look around and see people wondering if I'll snag it and then fight their way through the crowd to sit down. Most of the time it's a woman but when it's guys in their 30s I'm like "really dude?"
Sure the guy is probably an arse but it seems the whole situation could have been diffused by one person just giving up their seat somewhere else on the bus.
