TMT (Too much Touching)

Concert, Professional Sporting Event or Political campaign rally - why do people have the need to touch or be touched by the singer, ball player or politician. Are they not capable of watching the game, hearing the singer perform and listening to campaign speech without lining up just to have a potential mil-second touch of that person's hand?

Then again, I think Western society- American especially is way too touchy. I think even hand shakes need to be replaced by a fist bump as an acceptable form of greeting(especially with strangers). Seriously, I cringe anytime I have to extend my hand to shake someone else's in any setting. With everyone's concern about flu viruses and that PROPER hand washing is the only real preventive measure, I believe a fist bump is formal enough.
