Can confirm that it's been huge on the NW side. I visited both Wilson Park and Jefferson Park the other night - people wandering around glued to their phones.

I'll get bored of it one day. But for now I enjoy it.



What gets me is these people posting things on FB or IG about how "I have better things to worry than catch pokemon"
I'm sure all the older players have jobs, exercise, have girlfriends, and have other interests.
Yeah.".older" people have jobs and girlfriends.. etc...unlike you who are 26? Lol..you are not a teenager living at home anymore..
How do you pay for your phone?

I really don't get much info from them. They're all in the closet of giving out insider information.

Pokemon GO is very popular along the beach in Rogers Park. Tons of people gathered there last night. People of all ages too. The best was a couple of mothers in the 30's who admitted to having never played a Pokemon game before. I've played many Pokemon games before, but I'm still trying to get used to this one.

I think GO is pretty clever, and I like that it gets people out and about. I also think it's a genius move on Nintendo's part. So many people game on their phones nowadays rather than buy the portable consoles.
