This is not necessarily new information, but it does confirm what we already knew: sports fans are highly connected to tech and digital world.

The report also shows that about 60% of tablet and smartphone owners who use mobile devices for sports content do so at least once a day.

Sports fans in general are also more likely to have other tech-related tools and gadgets than non-sports fans, from Digital Video Recorders for recording games (42%) and games consoles (33%) to smartphones (21%) and HDTV’s (20%).
