Not gonna lie, I’ve done this many times BUT thank God my date has never had a problem with it! Lol.  I could never date someone that wasn’t into sports tho and that would mind if I did check.

Motricity commissioned a national survey to find out how sports fans are using their mobile phones. The findings are pretty interesting.  Check it out after the jump…

Where do you fit in?!

79% of sports fans have used their device(s) for watching or following sports this past year

55% can’t wait for the final score and have tracked game scores using their device(s)

87% have given into temptations and checked on a sports during an inappropriate time:

      – 50% have gone to the restroom in order to check the score
      – 55% have taken a peek at their device during dinner
      – 23% have disregarded pre-show reminders and checked scores while at the movies
      – 1 in 5 (18%) have dared to check scores during a date
                 – 1 in 7 (14%) have even checked a score while at church

While appearing to be sending emails, 42% have actually been checking up on their favorite team while at work

More than a third (32%)are repeat offenders who frequently fake their finger-tapping to check a score

The number one app that sports fans most want, is one that will give them the ability to view the game from an individual player’s helmet (60%)

Nearly as many (58%) want audio feeds from both sidelines to stream through their sports app.
