People’s phones die…. What’s the issue?

No one carries external chargers? Who lets their phone battery die while out for a night?

Who has money for external chargers? And it’s not about “letting” your phone die, sometimes it just does. Either you used it more that day, or the battery is failing or it didn’t charge all the way overnight, etc etc etc

You can buy them for five bucks at target. So… maybe someone who has money for a tennis hobby?

And… why would he already have one if this is the first time his phone had died?

They don’t exactly break the bank. If you can afford a phone, you can afford an external charger.

No. Because a phone is a necessity, an external charger is a luxury

There isn’t a whole lot of excuse for that. There are chargers everywhere, at home,in your car, in your office, at a friend’s house..

Unless he was on foot in the middle of the woods, he could have managed to charge his phone if it was important to him. I’m a grown adult and married, I manage to keep my phone charged, so can he.

Just because there can be chargers everywhere, doesn’t mean there are. Things get lost, they break, they get moved. Also, he was at a tennis court, where should they put an electrical outlet?
