At All-Star Game Yank Fans Loved Throwing Away their Phones

We are, of course, the most knowledgeable fans in the world.

The head of of Hop-on -- the maker of throw-away cell phones -- says Yank fans received disposable phones at the All-Star Game, and they really took to the idea of throwing them away.

Says Peter Michaels: "The reception we received in New York was amazing. We gave phones to New York's finest, from Governor David Paterson to Security Guards at the game. Baseball's greatest athletes and their families enjoyed our phone and what it actually offers. Our targeted demographic was New York City and their incredible citizens. Yankee fans are the most loyal and outspoken fans in the world. They understood that the value and quality of the phone is not disposable. The HOP1800 has clear sound, technology components including a flashlight, and design comparable to any mid-tier cell phone on the market for a fraction of the cost. Their embrace of our phone was truly incredible."

Hopefully, so was their aim.
