Can People Seriously Not Go 2 Hours Without Looking at their Phones?

Big pet peeve of mine. I, admittedly, have a phone too and check it periodically. But, more often than not, I put it in my pocket and only look at it every once in a while. And, I definitely don't pull it out when I'm having dinner at a restaurant or am doing something that requires my attention. Today, when we were at my daughter's dance recital, the auditorium lights were turned down and, every minute or so, someone was pulling out their phone to check Facebook, texts, etc. This included the guy sitting two seats down from me. It was only two hours, I think they could have waited. But, maybe I'm just old fashioned.
