For the most part, if you were to ask a random guy on the street if he's carrying protection, most will say yes. Trojan brand condoms says that people carry protection with them, even in sad circumstances.

A poll taken showed that one in eight men that are thirty-five and under admit they've taken protection with them to a funeral. Now one in four millennials admitted to taking protection to their high school reunion. This seems more common to us and more likely than a funeral, but I guess at a funeral, someone who is mourning or sad may be more likely to want someone to console them.

The poll also showed that seventy-seven percent of adults who are between the ages of eighteen and thirty-five should equally responsible when providing protection. In fact seventy-eight percent of men believe they should have protection and responsible for wearing condoms than have the woman take birth control.

Now for first dates, the poll showed that sixty-five percent of men bring protection on the first date.

So guys, do you fall into these results? Do you take a condom with you to a funeral? We have more on this story in today's edition of a Few Things You Should Know!

The Las Vegas EDC Lost & Found Is Full Of Stuff People Left Behind

It happens every year in Las Vegas. The Electric Daisy Carnival. Otherwise known as EDC.

It's the largest electronic dance music festival in North America, according to Wikipedia. Every May hundreds of thousands of people flock to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway to get in on the EDC action. And they fill the entire speedway with what truly is a full-blown music carnival.

The event includes 22 carnival rides and ferris wheels, and eight stages of music with more than 200 DJs and performers. More than 5000 people are typically on staff and over 300,000 people in attendance. EDC is the signature event of Insomniac Events. The first one occurred in Los Angeles in 1997.

More than 100,00 people attend EDC on each of its three nights. Tickets sold are for the entire weekend as opposed to individual days. Though often participants will find people reselling their tickets after the second night for a heavy discount.

This year in Las Vegas three-day tickets were $389 or more for general admission, depending on the ticket seller. GA+ tickets went for $599. And the VIP tickets for the weekend set individuals back $1000 each. And that's just for admission. Then you have to factor in parking, or shuttle fare. And out of towners who didn't have a hotel room had to pay for camping.

There's definitely some budgeting that needs to happen for anyone planning to attend the festival. But what people don't plan for is replacing their expensive belongings when they are inevitably lost. Drug use and alcohol intoxication is very normal at EDC. Three days straight of that, plus dehydration and concert exhaustion, and it's not hard to lose track of where you put things. Every year the EDC administration encourages people to pre-register their belongings so they can claim them after the festival if lost.

Unfortunately, not everyone heeds that warning. Here's the pile of stuff in the EDC Lost & Found that people left behind this year(from 8newsnow.com). Any guesses as to which people lost the most of? You might be surprised. - Wendy Rush

Sunglasses

There would probably be a lot more sunglasses left behind if so much of EDC wasn't at night. There were only 11 left behind this year. And I'm going to guess people didn't bother to come back for theirs.

Backpacks

I know what you're thinking. And yes, they apparently did let backpacks in at EDC this year. But not all of them made it out. 25, to be exact.

Keys

41 people might have a hard time getting back into their car or house after EDC this year. That's how many sets of keys were left behind.

Wallets

I don't know about you, but I would freak the freak out if I lost my wallet. Maybe as much as if I had lost my phone. 122 people were probably going through that this week. That's how many wallets were left behind at EDC this year.

Phones

This year 172 phones were left behind at EDC. Can you imagine going through this pile looking for your phone? Guaranteed they aren't charged too, so you can't identify it by your background picture. This is an argument for custom cases!

IDs

People come from all over to go to EDC. So there's going to be a lot of driver's licenses, identification cards and passports. This year 324 of them didn't make it home.

Credit Cards

Someone on the EDC clean-up crew could seriously go on a shopping spree if they wanted to. Hopefully the owners of the 337 credit cards left behind this year were frozen by their owners. By far the most of any item left behind.

"Random Items"

And just for honorable mention, was the 6 "random things" left behind at EDC. There's no detail of what those random items were. Inhalers, retainers, underwear...could be anything.
