If you live in New York, chances are you know someone who’s obsessed with fantasy football. But here is the funny part a new survey shows that fans aren’t just managing their teams on game day. They’re doing it anytime, anywhere, even in places you wouldn’t expect.

Not Just During the Game

According to Props.com, about 24% of fans actually manage their fantasy football team while watching the game. The rest of the time? They’re sneaking it in whenever life gives them a free second.

In Bed, at Work, Even on the Toilet

The survey found that one in five fans are making last minute trades in bed before going to sleep. About 15% are setting lineups on their lunch break, and 8% are even doing it at work. Yes another 8% admitted to making fantasy football moves while on the toilet. Talk about dedication...Okay, let's not talk about it.
