This is a fantastic thread! Lets see how long we can keep this one going. I love hearing about all the sightings and people out there beyond the interwebz.
Vapers in the Wild

Another dog walker was getting to the pond as we were leaving.
We started chatting and he took a vape off his rechargeable Blu.
I took a hit off my KFL/Provari and asked how he likes his vape.
He said his juice (B&M Rasberry/turd) was kinda gross but it was better than smoking.
He said he wanted to upgrade so I walked him through it.
He's thrilled with his new C-twists, Evods & my DIY
Go team.
Now that's the suga I'm talkin' about! Good on ya Mowgli.
The local vape shops are always packed, but it's pretty rare to spot a vaper in the wild here...but it does seem to vary by neighborhood.
Downtown and other high traffic Businessy areas
I've seen a couple Itaste vvs, couple egos, and a guy on the bus that I debated for a while if he was thoughtfully chewing on a pen or holding in vapor (I decided he was vaping)
over the last 9 months
Went to a trendy younger neighborhood recently (Hawthorne for any locals) and was shocked how many vapers I saw in one quick trip.
A group of people at least 3 of which had nice high end mechs and were blowing clouds, an Ego, and a couple cig-a-likes
My immediate neighborhood
zero

Never seen anybody out n about vaping, and I was at the local B&M, and saw one of my fellow college students with a seven-22, had a chat about new mechs, and going over tomorrow to meet a few other of his vaper friends. Really pleasantly surprised
Most of what I've seen here have been ego-style with clearomizers, although I've seen a fair number of MVPs and even a few mechs here and there.
A few of the ego-style vapers that I've talked to, though, have mentioned it's their "out in the real world" setup and they have other gear at home.

Lol. Just now reading this thread taking a break at work and a customer left the parking lot vaping and ego with an evod. That seems to be the most common around here. I manage a grocery store and see several people a week vaping
This past Monday, I was the vaper in the wild. I took my roomie to the hospital for his doctor visit and the valet lady spotted me vaping off my mod. She commented that she was glad she spotted another vaper.
I've came across quite a few in the last couple of month,more like starting noticing it more,but I do alot of driving during the day at work.I've seen everything from high end to starters,its really starting to catch on around here.
Hmmm, I think it's really interesting all the different things people are vaping on. Personal expression. Except for a couple of rare and expensive exceptions, analogs all look the same.
Not so with PVs. Cool!
(And I admit to some of the same thing. I keep looking at some of the really cool carto tanks just because they look cool.)

I saw another vaper once when i was stoped at a gas station. I went outside of the car and stood on the sidewalk to vape and get some fresh air. A dish tech saw it and pulled his out to vape by his van. I immediatly rushed to my car and drove off like a scared puppy. I was so surprised i did'nt know what to say to him. I just rushed out of there, lol. Perhaps i will be a little more social next time. hehe
I do not see other vapers often when I go out, but at least I see them once in a while. Up to six months ago, I had never seen a vaper. That has changed though, at least in my immediate surroundings. Two of my smoker friends have started vaping after I showed them my gear.
I think that what convinced them to try vaping, much more than anything I have said to them, is that they knew me as a forever smoker, the last person on earth who would give up smoking, the one that would smoke even on his deathbed. The fact that I quit instantly and without effort after starting vaping is what convinced them to give it a try
