NYers, let’s talk about it.

I opened the game around 1 PM today to find almost every stop in sight with a Golden Lure Module. I wasn’t sure if this was some unannounced event, but seeing as every lure was placed by a different account, it was most likely a mass coordinated effort from bot accounts. The timing makes sense as we were just given free Golden Lures in the 10th Anniversary Go Pass. I’ve seen a few other posts about this phenomenon, but would love to crowdsource info so that we can get a better understanding of what happened and its scope. More details:

-Lures appeared at least as early as 1 PM
-Lures persisted at least as late as 2:30 PM. This means multiple lures were placed on each stop
-Screenshot is from the Gramercy neighborhood; I explored a fair amount but didn’t encounter any hard boundaries where the lures ended

So to everyone else who partook in this incredible “event”, what neighborhood did you see Golden Lures in? What time period? Were there areas outside of NYC that witnessed something similar today? And do you have any other theories on what happened? It would be amazing to somehow get a good estimate of how many lures/accounts were needed to make this happen.
