OUR SHARED CULTURAL EXPERIENCES

According to a recent Gallup poll, here are American’s most common cultural activities:
1. Visiting the local library remains by far the most common cultural activity Americans engage in. The average 10.5 trips to the library exceeds their participation in eight other common leisure activities.
2. Americans attend live music, movies or theatrical events and visit national or historic parks roughly four times a year on average.
3. Americans visit museums and gambling casinos 2.5 times annually.
4. We go to amusement or theme parks 1.5 times a year
5. We go to zoos .9 times a year.
* Does that mean we buy a ticket to the zoo, but don’t go inside?
* All I know is, there were more people IN “Cats” then went to SEE “Cats”.
* The point-five at the amusement parks comes from people who go to Disneyland, but the lines are so long you can’t get on any of the rides.
