Some people are really dedicated
If you’re not convinced that hundreds of people in packed dense locations are playing Pokemon Go yet, give this short documentary from Alexander Steinerg a watch.
In this doc you’ll find (and this is real):
- An unsuspecting passerby businessman who makes adorably coy faces
- A guy who hasn’t showered in four days and eats from food trucks
- A teen who is too scared to announce his team in public
- People who consider jumping barriers to parks for a Gyrados
- A kid who made his own dope Pokemon hat
- A guy who will go to Compton to catch Mew
The dude at 7:30 in explains it all: “anything can fucking happen!”
Man this game! It’s so cool to see this social phenomenon unfold. When it does plateau eventually I hope some of this madness is still around. I wonder how many people will stick around for Gold/Silver, which was better than the Red/Blue era by the way.
