This is a huge pet peeve of mine. If mine is not turned off during a game, I'll let it ring and go to voice mail.
One college I worked at had a student scorekeeper who would talk on her phone during the game. I think it was one of the reasons she eventually got asked to stop doing games partly through the season.
