There are less expensive things to throw after a loss in my opinion.

I'm willing to bet there were quite a few people in Charlotte, North Carolina throwing their cell phones yesterday. It makes sense though. If you're upset and just to happen to be holding your phone, you tend to throw that phone as hard as you can against the wall, on the ground, etc. And according to Mashable, you're three times as likely to smash that phone if your team loses the Super Bowl.

There is also a 200% increase in requests for cell phone repairs in those cities.

I don't quite understand it. I am more of a college football fan than a professional football fan however, I can't see myself throwing anything after a loss. I'm more of an, I need to go for a walk or hit the gym kind of girl. Then again, beating up a punching bag is kind of the same thing as throwing things, isn't it?
