Yesterday I had an errand that took me to Rick's Garden Center on Uintah and 19th, and this sign was outside the door. I'm not into the current Pokémon fad at all. I've seen lots of people wandering around downtown lately, staring at their phones. I don't know too much about it but it seems to be a digital form of geocaching, simply put. It's an intriguing idea for small businesses to capitalize on it! If this silly-but-harmless little fad leads people to explore downtown and the west side, and to discover cool places like Rick's Garden Center, then why not? Good for them and good for Rick's!

Some shops here are starting to cater to players too. I find the whole fad baffling.
