Distracted walking (while texting that is) has increased 35 percent since 2010. Maybe no one should ever claim they've never done it, but now is just not the time.

5 Cheyenne places not to text while walking:

1. Going through the door at Red Lobster, Rue Terre. (Same goes for Texas Roadhouse down the street - and through any door for that matter.)

2. Downtown Cheyenne. (Skateboarders are less dangerous.)

3. Cheyenne Depot Plaza during Beer Festival. (Just find your party and drink.)

4. On Airport Golf Course. (On behalf of your group, "C'mon, we're golfin' here.")

5. Frontier Mall. (From now until Christmas, happy collision-free shopping.)
