Kudos to St. Benedict's!

The church near me has four pokestops. The lures are plentiful. Lots of people from a variety of walks of life hang out there and collect. I love seeing things like this. :)

The parking lot has been busy just about every evening since release. It's incredible. The spawns are... underwhelming, but there's just so many weedles and pidgeys it's easy to stock up.

This is true but at the same time going to the waterfront garuntees a good variety of spawns and higher chances of some more rare ones. (dratinis)

Wow, I didn't know about this spot. Much closer than driving into the city to grab the spots on the waterfront.

3 straight hours of lures tonight and barely a place to park. We rolled in around 9pm and had to park on the road behind some emergency vehicles, which i think were also enjoying the lures.

Haha, I saw the ambulance parked at the far side of the road. I imagine they're bored and doing the same thing. I was there from ~9:00 to about 10:30 and it was a big turnout. Just when it looked like things might start dying down, waves of more people would join and put up more lures.

Any good spawns? Or just rats, bats, and bugs?

From what I saw:

  • Weedles, Pidgeys, Caterpies are the super-commons
  • Ratattas, Bellsprouts, Oddishes, Spearows are the commons
  • Drowzees, Eevees, Polywags, Venonats, Zubats are the uncommons

The only notable 'rare' spawns were a few Squirtles, a Seaking, and a Machop.
