When Pokemon Go was first released, I was really interested in the reverse engineering efforts that were happening - and while I could capture most of the protocol from my house, I was out of range from a stop or a tower. With the help of two phones, a raspberry pi, and a battery pack I was able to make some walks over to the areas, and get additional captures of the protobuf data when interacting in those locations.
The interesting part was more the amount of people that were out and about playing in those areas -- and as you said, they were all interacting and seemingly having a good time. I spoke to a few people (I generally don't venture out much in my own neighborhood), and got to know some of my neighbors in the area. It was pretty interesting to see the bond that playing the game was really producing.
