It's already starting, saw last night where a guy ran into a tree while he was driving and playing Pokemon Go. It just amazes me at how dumb some people are especially when video games are involved. I was reading an story last night about how people are trespassing on the Radford Munition Plant property trying to collect Charizwhatever out of the missile that stands near the gate.

It won't be long until people start breaking into other peoples homes and start breaking their pots to try and collect rubies for Zelda Go.

They are/where running around in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and Arlington National Cemetery.

I see no difference from people killing themselves during skydiving, aerobatic, skiing drunk shooting or just trying to prove their manliness...

lol true.  People messing with their phones and oblivious to their surroundings have always irritated me, but it seems like its 10x worse in the last few days.  Almost got a couple dudes last night with my pickup.  I was turning onto my street and both of them just walked right out in front of me.  Never thought twice about stepping into the street.  It's not like my pickup is hard to hear.  They only looked up when my tires squealed and they looked genuinely surprised to see me.  Almost like they thought I was driving on the sidewalk.  :bhead

I mean because bears are going to specifically target Pokemon players....or the generally unwary.

i can Think of a billion other thing people can do that is worse than playing Pokemon GO, people goes outside and meet other people. Seems like they have a lot of fun. i really dont see any harm in that. of course there are those who takes it a bit too far but most people can handle it.
I tried it and got bored after 5 minutes and im not surprised if the hype fade away and most people quit. but let them have their fun.

I sat at a pokestop yesterday and watched for 10 minutes. Seen people driving past slow looking straight at the phone for 20 seconds without even looking up to see if they were still in their lane or if anyone is in front of them, and when they do their thing they make an illegal u turn in the road and hightail it to the next one.

while I think the game is stupid.  it at least gets people to get up and walk around. instead of sitting on their butts all day.
