random people on segways

The other day I was at the mall with my friend, and I saw like 2 different random people on segways shopping. My friend had no clue what I was talking about when i said "ooo wow look theres a regular person on a segway!" haha
I was wondering if anyone else has seen people on a segway, whether it be at the mall, great america, school, work, etc. It was pretty cool how that person had one.

There's this one place I keep seeing a lot of them. It's some thing called "FIRST" I dunno if you guys have heard of it. It's these like geeks, and they're like, segway fiends. .

I saw someone at a mall. He watched me play ddr. THen I played a song he liked so he let me ride it for a few minutes.

I've never seen a segway outside of FIRST or TV two years ago.

There was some guy who lives behind the mall I work at riding segways in the mall parking lot with his son (who I went to High School with) usually I see them out every night zipping through the mall parking lot before dusk...

Yeah it is pretty cool seeing that

Saw a guy zipping along the sidewalks on a Segway. He had a cane on the handle. Good mobility for the disabled, no?

Ohhh, very much so. The Segway is changing lives daily for individuals who can not get around as easily as others. I know I will be changed greatly by the Segway very soon. I see the Seg out and about a bit with ordinary people... but I spend to much time in the Boston and Manchester area.

The WPI campus police use Segways to patrol the area.

I've sighted the rare Segway in the following locations:

-The Atlanta, GA airport.
-Going down the sidwalk along Hawthorne Blvd in Torrance, CA. Hawthorne is THE major street in that area four lanes each way and better than 50,000 vehicles per day.
Loyola Marymount University. Apparently the maintenance dept uses them to get around.

Outside of First, I haven't seen much of the segway. I did see a segway-mounted police officer in Atlanta, and of course, Tom Schindler is always around on his segway at our school. Besides that, not much...

Oh, another one, Disneyland Cast and Security use them around the resort

I've seen them at Cal Games when the Bay Area Segway Enthusiasts brought theirs, at a local parade, all over the place at nationals, here at WPI, at IRI, and in a couple other random places.

At WPI there is this strange kid that likes to hang out in the Campus Center riding his Segway. Wait...he is already famous for his Globe article.

And the police look so happy on them.

I saw a couple people riding Segways in downtown Rochester MI a couple days ago. I saw one down in Ann Arbor awhile ago, too. Those have been my only non-FIRST sightings, though.

I know at one of the chicago airports (can't remember which one it was) I noticed that all the security officers were riding around on segways.

[Amanda Morrison]

That would be O'Hare airport... they are seen frequently there.
