I am not a player - but I am intrigued reading all the news about Pokemon - the good (exercise, getting people outside, just fun) - and the bad (walking off cliffs, no-good guys luring people to them up for being robbed, etc.). There are also many articles about real estate agents using the game to spark interest in open houses and in other ways.
One thing that I gained more knowledge about from reading are Poke Stops and Poke Gyms - so I thought for fun I would post a few that I have read about for those interested:
The biggest Poke Park in Tucson - Reid Park - lately at night you can see many, many people out playing.
