The Top Six Rated Videos (the only 6 that were rated)
  1. Special Olympics Torch Run – 5 Stars (1 rating)

  2. Stormtrooper Bob Goes To Pittsburgh – 2 Stars (1 rating)

  3. Seahawks Suck! – 1 Star (4 ratings)

  4. Snakes On A Plane Wins! – 1 Star (3 ratings)

  5. The Evil Slide of Doom! – 1 Star (1 rating)

  6. Shooting at the range 2 – 1 Star (1 rating)

To do some analysis paralysis, the METRA video is downloaded more often per page view than just about any other video.  That’s right a video of a train did best.  A train.  Who would have known.  The Snakes On A Plane video is getting a lot of traffic due to obvious reasons.  And for the same obvious reason, the rating is quite low on it.  Apparently there were some disgruntled Seattle fans that thought a 2 year-old Steelers fan deserved one star.  The Special Olympics Torch Run got 5 out of 5 stars.  Hmmm.  The Stormtrooper Bob video is my favorite, and it only got 2 stars.  I’ll try better next time.  There are several shooting videos at the top of all the lists.  Good way to gauge the viewing desires of the public.  Then there’s the Goat Walk (over 1,300 views) and Holla Back (over 1,200 views) videos.  A wide gamut of choices there.  I can see why the Holla Back video gets the page views, but the Goat Walk?
