Football fever in Barcelona reached new heights as a popular sports bar underwent a remarkable transformation. The bar was enveloped in a protective cocoon of bubble wrap to protect fans’ precious devices during the thrilling European clash between Barcelona and Bayern Munich. This ingenious idea was inspired by recent research highlighting the risks of phone damage during intense football celebrations.
Research Findings:
A survey conducted by HONOR revealed the passionate nature of football fans, with 83% describing themselves as avid supporters. The excitement of the game often led to exuberant celebrations, with 79% admitting to getting carried away. Unfortunately, this enthusiasm sometimes resulted in accidents, with half of the respondents confessing to throwing or dropping their belongings in the heat of the moment.
Common Football-Related “Fails”:
The survey uncovered a range of regrettable incidents caused by celebratory fervor. Fans recounted spilling drinks on their phones and themselves, sustaining injuries, and losing belongings like sunglasses and clothing. Tech-related damage, such as broken phones and shattered screens, was also common, emphasizing the need for more durable devices.

This made it the ideal companion for football fans who wanted to enjoy the game without worrying about their devices.
The Importance of Phones During Sporting Events:
The survey also illuminated the crucial role of smartphones during sporting events. Fans cited various reasons for keeping their devices close, including checking scores, updating social media, messaging friends and family, and taking pictures. Despite the risks associated with celebratory exuberance, 62% of respondents admitted that the thrill of seeing their team score made any potential damage worthwhile.
