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?
Let's say there are 20 people in the pool. Most stay for 3ish hours. How many would you expect to leave the pool area to use the bathroom?
Sure most probably use the bathroom before or after... But compared to a situation like a movie theater where people snack and drink about the same amount, but most are busting at the bladder after two and a half hours.... It makes you wonder what the difference is.
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.
