Vuvuzela [pronounced voo-voo-zella]  A long plastic trumpets blown by South African fans at football games, which are being talked up as the 12th man of the host team because they have the effect of deafening their opponents.

South Africans may be a conservative and reserved nation, but when it comes to supporting their favourite sports, they turn into instant hooligans.  And Hooligans with a really loud plastic trumpet, can become quite a fekkin' pain in the arse.  

In some countries the vuvuzela is banned because of its noise levels.  Nine English Premier League clubs have banned the device, they say due to health and safety reasons, I think its just coz its fucking annoying.

But its dead fun to play when you've had a few drinks to frighten your friends and neighbours!

Usage :  I thought I heard an angry swarm of bumblebees, but it was only the sound of vuvuzelas playing at the World Cup.

Yeah, the vuvuzela has been compared to the porn star, Jenna Jameson - plastic, horny and makes a hell of a noise whilst blowing.





 

Vuvuzela Day 9 June 2010

Today's Vuvuzela Blowing country-wide was a HUGE success and great fun!  

The entire country came to a stand still at noon so that we could share the Soccer GEES and blow our vuvuzelas.

Here what us South African's experienced today.

 

Sandton, Johannesburg

And our office parking lot

Blow Me!

With only 2 days to go before 2010 Fifa World Cup Soccer kick off, today is the day that the entire country will come to a stand still at midday for five minutes in order to blow our Vuvuzelas in celebration.

So, at noon, stop what you are doing, get your Vuvuzelas and blow on it like never before.  If you are in the car, hoot and let the sound be heard from Cape to Mpumalanga to Natal and from Natal to Limpopo!

The Vuvuzela moment is here, let it be felt.

This is our year to shine and shine we will.

Viva of Bafana Bafana!
