DON’T BAN THE VUVUZELA!
I can’t stand this! Why are people, (Westerners) always trying to force their ways on the rest of the world?? For long the Vuvuzela has been a symbol of South African soccer. Fans blow it to support their team. “African folklore has it that a babboon is killed by a lot of noise, so during the last quarter of a match, fans will frantically blow the Vuvuzelas to ‘kill off’ the other team.” -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vuvuzela
It’s all in good fun, and if you’re a little annoyed by it, tough shit. Figure it out, seriously! Why should an authentic African soccer experience be watered down because you don’t necessarily agree with the entire way we do it down there? We put up with your boring European and American World Cups which provided no cultural aspect whatsoever.
Asking us to not blow Vuvuzelas is like the South African Baseball team asking the Americans to not sing “Take Me Out To The Ballgame” during the 7th inning stretch. They would absolutely refuse and find it ridiculous that you dared tell them not to. And just as a little ender here, what the hell kind of an opinion do Mike and Mike have anyway? America is just absolutely terrible at soccer!
