NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Buddy the Rat's 15 minutes of fame as the city's most famous rodent -- well, technically he's a man in a rat costume -- has been extended.

After a video surfaced last week of artist Jonothon Lyons on all fours scurrying around a 1 train he boarded at 42nd Street, social media lit up.

Now Buddy is back with a pair of videos (below) that are just as head-turning: In one video, Buddy has gotten his chompers into a slice of pizza, and is seen dragging it around a subway platform and up a flight of stairs.

"Everyone knows rats and pizza have been close associates since time immemorial," Lyons tells 1010 WINS.

In another video, Buddy illustrates that he abides by the public health measures, and is donning a mask.
