At a matinee showing of The Dark Knight Rises....
As I sat in my seat with rockboxed Clip Zip w/FiiO E6 running Sennheiser PX90's (I showed up early to get a good seat), I saw a kid that looked to be maybe 12 years old walking in carrying what looked to be an iphone, with beats around his neck.

In a McDonalds the other day, same scenario, only he was about 8 or 9 and had a pair of QC15's.

On the 5 Fulton going home I saw a teen or young adult wearing Senn HD 280's.
 
Last week a customer came into the store I work at wearing a pair of Future Sonic custom IEM's.

A while back i spotted someone in SR60s in my class so the next week i asked him how he likes his grados and if he's a member of head-fi. Sadly, he was not but his friend was and his friend was the one who recommended him the SR60s. Seemed like a cool guy so i sold him my spare HD414 yellow pads and Beyerdynamic headband to enhance his musical experience. 
 
I think i'll try wearing my SR60s in the gym for fun to see if i garnish some reactions while pumping weights =)

I've seen at least 10 people of varying ages/race wearing Beats...not on their head, but a around their necks. Not kidding, I've never seen anyone actually listening to them. must be just a fashion thing.  
for example : like on even these guys

i agree, almost 40% of the school population in my High school; almost everyone wearing a Generic type of Beats headphones.
only saw 2 people wearing Bose Quiet Comforts, 1 wearing a Vmoda Crossfade, 1 Klipsch M50(who is friends with one of mine)
 
im the only one with Portapros. Me and my Friend both own a Sony XB500.
funny to say im the only one in school who actually wore a pair of Sennheisers.
 
btw, this is a school in Virginia
