I used to think I was in a small category of people being an AFOL until I went to a Lego Convention in Chicago.

The percentage of adults who are afols is very low but when they are all in one convention, there's loads of afols Same for any hobbies really You won't know a lot of people who like shooting clay pigeons, but if you go to one of the shooting ranges, it would look like there's loads of people into that hobby

Agreed. I would have chosen a different background but I did not have any say so.
