Saturday’s Texas-Maryland game was painful to watch.

So painful, in fact, that many fans appear to have buried their faces in their phones.

Figures from AT&T show customers at Darrell K. Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium used more than 1.3 terabytes of data – enough to rank among the weekend’s top five games, the Austin American Statesman’s Gary Dinges reports.

In case you’re wondering – and you totally were – that’s the equivalent of 3.9 million selfies, the Dallas-based telecommunications giant says.

For more on how that figure stacks up against past games, and how much the stadium is equipped to handle, visit 512tech.com.
