I'm sure you'll be alright as long as you wash your hands after you're done playing and, uh, don't lick the bar.

That's not the half of it. What about the people who play ITG and have to use their hands disturb.gif Do people wear gloves or something - I probably would, especailly with some people playing barefoot.

Personally, I've never thought much about sanitation and DDR. I wipe off the bar and the panels with a towel after I'm done but I don't stop to think about how many other hands have grabbed the bar over the course of the day, week, month, whatever. If I am exposing myself to germs by playing DDR, so be it. That's what my immune system is there for anyway.

The bar helps, get over it. It helps you conserve energy, and it makes some of the mine patterns on ITG oh so much easier.

Sanitation? Are you kidding me guy? A doorknob has probably just as many germs as the bar, do you make bring up the topic of conversation "Sanitation and doorknobs" with people? You're stupid to worry about sanitation on something like the bar.

I have OCD and I dont even think about that crap. Just wash your hands, or if you want to be a big Azure about it, use your feet for the hands, or bring some windex with you.

It's the same with any arcade game. Bring some Germ-X or antibacterial lotion. There are plenty of nasty people who rarely or never wash their hands.

As long as they had the full winter getup and were playing "ever snow" or "White lovers," then it's OK.

Like someone else said it's the same with any arcade game and most things in public for that matter. I hate to think how many germs are on those video game controllers that are connected to the demo stations in stores like Target and Best Buy. Just wash your hands after you are done playing and always wash your hands when you get home from being out somewhere.

Never actually thought about it but i dont/cant use the bar anyways.
But in either case unless the previous person had a super deadly bacteria that made your hands explode from touching yourself...i think you'll be fine.

Remember: A toilet seat has less bacteria than a cell phone E1.gif
