I’d expect 2 or 3 to need the restroom in that time, maybe 5 or 6 if it was a younger crowd.
Given what people are saying in this thread I think I was just unaware I had a stronger bladder than most and am underestimating how often the average person needs the restroom. Only time I’ve ever needed the restroom that bad after a movie was when I saw LOTR in theaters, and with previews it wound up being about 4 hours.
Most anonymous polls put the number at 20 to 40%, but the numbers spike higher among people that spend a lot more time in the pools (like competitive swimmers, which apparently respond at 90-100%).
As for the hours in the pool while drinking, even if I’m drinking pretty heavily at a party I usually don’t have to use the bathroom until 2 or 3 hours in, and I’ll usually do a cup of water for every drink. Do people generally just have weaker bladders than I’m used to?
Last I looked into it only about 1/3 people pee in the pool (excluding toddlers and young kids), but that’s enough people that pretty much every public pool is gonna have pee in it.
I find people online tend to have a lot more passion for arguing than I do so I often rethink posting any responses I come up with.
