Hillary Clinton's Website Joins in Subway Swipe Joke With ‘404' Message

Hillary Clinton tried five times to swipe a card to enter the subway Thursday

Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign embraced the candidate's failed attempts to swipe a New York City subway card last week by putting it up on its own website as an error message, NBC News reported.

Clinton tried five times to swipe a card to enter the subway Thursday while media tagged along for the ride— earning the derision of the local tabloids and "Saturday Night Live."

Since then, she's been trying to defuse the gaffe by poking fun at it. Saturday, she showed up at an annual New York charity event to appear in a skit asking Mayor Bill de Blasio to "please fix these MetroCard slots in the subway."

And now Clinton's campaign website is displaying a gif of her failing to get through the subway turnstiles when you try to go to a page that doesn't exist — the dreaded "404: page not found" message.
