I take my dog for walks at a nearby metro park most weekends and I have to give this game a lot of credit for getting nerds out of the house.

There is a way point, or whatever the games that use this stuff call them, at the one area of the park and every time I'm there it's always populated with a bunch of unwashed teens on their phones. It's quite funny.

................... this would explain the very large, very strange herd of VERY unwashed dudes I saw in the park the other day, all walking around looking at their phones.

I had forgotten P:Go was a thing.

lol. At the Weird Al concert there were a fair # of Pokemon Go players, since the place is active and has the towers/whatever.

The other day, 12 of them pulled up in my neighborhood to play, but they didn't even get out of their cars.
It's not me, it's someone else.
