Who Reads The World Famous Brown Duck Anyway?

"I reads what I reads."
 - G.A. Overman, 1965, The Brackety-Ack.  Fox Hall Publications and Tackle, Salem, VA.



Unsurprisingly, the vast majority of readers of The Brown Duck are in The United States and, we suspect many are hiding out in and around The New River Valley in Olde Virginny.  At least one reader has been spotted in Roanoke, VA and rumors are spreading that there is a small, clandestine group of Brown Duck readers on the west coast.  It may be surprising, however, to see how many readers of the Duck are spread all around the world, giving greater credence to the familiar phrase of "at a Brown Duck near you."  Here are the page view statistics:

USA  27,336
China  553
Russia  477
Ukraine  336
UK   260
Germany  198
Poland  141
France  95
Canada  91
Australia  51
Other countries such as Ireland, Mexico and Iceland show less than 10.

So the next time Amanda Bishop steps outside her famous Tuggle's Gap Brown Duck to give a press conference and refers readers to check at the Brown Duck nearest themselves, she ain't just leaning up against your car looking for a ride home.  Just thought you'd like to know, and, if anyone has a friend in anywhere in Africa tell them to speak to Amanda Bishop or KTC Morgan about Getting a Brown Duck closer to home.
