ProtectCELL® study shows basketball
fans’ need for mobile defense
As America prepares for the final rounds of this season's men's
college basketball games, ProtectCELL® compared the fan bases of
each participating school to determine which was more likely to
require mobile device protection.
The study – which analyzed each school’s regional data –
suggests University of Florida fans to be clumsier than UConn
supporters, with Gators fans 48 percent more inclined to require a
replacement smartphone or tablet. On the other side of the bracket,
Wisconsin fans were found to be 31 percent more destructive with
their mobile devices as compared to their Kentucky
counterparts.
ProtectCELL’s findings measure the frequency of mobile
replacements for smartphones and tablets across the company’s more
than 2 million plans sold.
“Casualties of technology are not uncommon amongst passionate
sports fans,” observed ProtectCELL Chief Marketing Officer Scott
McLaren. “With the tournament coming to a close, we are sure to
hear new stories of mobile devices lost or destroyed along the way.
ProtectCELL is happy to offer mobile protection plans for our less
fortunate Wisconsin and Florida fans – and anyone else looking to
protect their device during the heat of battle – this tournament
season and beyond.”
