Walkie-Talkie Mom

I was at a small college softball game the other day where the home team was playing a college a little more than an hour away. Anyway, a player for the visiting team had a mother in attendance and I figured so because they talked before the game started and looked to have mother-daughter kinds of conversations. Well as soon as the game started the mother was on her cell phone the entire time, well OK maybe 85 percent of the time. Do you seriously drive an hour to attend a softball game in which your daughter is playing and then just talk on the phone the whole time?
