Rolling Stone includes delivery rooms in list of strangest Pokestop locations

Other locations include graveyards and Holocaust memorials


Rolling Stone magazine has included delivery rooms in its list of strangest Pokestop locations, according to an article on the Rolling Stone website. Other noted locations include graveyards and Holocaust memorials.

One early player posted an image of his wife in a hospital bed, being prepared for a C-section, with the caption, "When your wife is about to have a baby and a Pokémon shows up and you have to low-key catch it...," the article said.

But, as he later told BuzzFeed, his wife was in on the joke. "As soon as it popped up, I was like, Oh my gosh, there's a Pidgey sitting on your bed!" he said. 

Pokémon Go, an "augmented-reality game" has became one of the biggest mobile games of all time and a pop culture phenomenon. It’s only been available in the United States for a week, and its audience is currently estimated to be the same size as Twitter – which was launched 10 years ago, Rolling Stone said.
