INTRODUCTION What if I said that a place that is revered by many-a place that has moved millions to tears of joy and pangs of heartache-no longer exists? Every few years, a memorable historic stadium is demolished to make way for a new luxury venue that a team can call home. Yet, for many fans, the modem stadiums lack the charm of the old ballparks. Fans see these replacements as crimes against their cultural history. Communities confront stadium proposals with cries to protect the aging giants. But, there are tremendous costs involved with historic preservation, especially the protection of sports facilities, which stand in contrast to the costs associated with preservation of residential or commercial buildings.

  • Shared Experiences Are Amplified. Psychological Science, 25, 2209
    PSSXXX10.1177/0956797614551162Boothby et al.Shared Experiences Are Amplified 551162research-article2014 Research Article Psychological Science 2014, Vol. 25(12) 2209 –2216 Shared Experiences Are Amplified © The Author(s) 2014 Reprints and permissions: sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/0956797614551162 pss.sagepub.com Erica J. Boothby, Margaret S. Clark, and John A. Bargh Yale University Abstract In two studies, we found that sharing an experience with another person, without communicating, amplifies one’s experience. Both pleasant and unpleasant experiences were more intense when shared. In Study 1, participants tasted pleasant chocolate. They judged the chocolate to be more likeable and flavorful when they tasted it at the same time that another person did than when that other person was present but engaged in a different activity. Although these results were consistent with our hypothesis that shared experiences are amplified compared with unshared experiences, it could also be the case that shared experiences are more enjoyable in general. We designed Study 2 to distinguish between these two explanations. In this study, participants tasted unpleasantly bitter chocolate and judged it to be less likeable when they tasted it simultaneously with another person than when that other person was present but doing something else. These results support the amplification hypothesis. Keywords shared experience, social influence, attention, mentalizing Received 4/3/14; Revision accepted 8/18/14 Since the Wrigley Company debuted its trademark merely engaging in an activity at the same time that Doublemint gum in 1914, its signature advertising cam- another person did would amplify the experience. paign has featured pairs of people simultaneously enjoy- Why might merely sharing an experience, without ing an experience.

  • The Wrigley Company's Heritage Is Filled with Stories of Leadership
    A Global Business with American Roots The Wrigley Company’s heritage is filled with stories of leadership, innovation, and integrity. Today, Wrigley is a global operation that distributes products to more than 180 countries and has operations in more than 40 countries. Its acquisition by Mars, Incorporated in 2008 has further enabled Wrigley to create simple pleasures that brighten everyone’s day. But the story behind this successful company began over a century ago with one Chicago salesman’s simple idea. A Bold Entrepreneur In 1891, salesman William Wrigley Jr. realized that the gum he gave away as an incentive to sell soap and baking powder was becoming more popular than the merchandise.
