Any Island playas?
A few weeks ago I ran into a bunch of ironically dressed hipster yoots at one of the area bike path trailheads and wondered just WTF they were up to. Several encounters with the crowd and an uttered "I spotted a byzyzmo (or something to that effect) near the path!" led me to the conclusion they were playing Pokemon GO.
A little research ensued. Their hangout (Lock 4 Park) is a Gym, and appears to be a pretty popular one at that. Being the antisocial COB (crotchety old b@st@rd) that I am, I did a little conniving and figured that if I installed the app on my phone, I could use it as an Idiot Radar of sorts...and thereby avoid the crowds at all costs.
Which I did. The concept works swimmingly well. Except that the game is fun to play. A lady friend has a grandson who plays it, and our evening/nighttime bicycle rides now consist of finding PokeStops, Gyms and whatnot along the trails. Surprisingly, many are deserted even in the daylight hours.
In just a few times out I made it to Level 5 and have a bazillion PokeBalls in my Items collection. There are 28 Pokemon and 9 eggs in my Pokedex at the moment, and tonight another friend and I are going to check out a big Gym/PokeStop area at a downtown lake park. Might net me a few more critters too.
