Vuvuzelas Driving Me Around the Horn
Hideous Vuvuzelas
What is that HONK??
Hideous Vuvuzelas – Is that the droning noise I have to listen to watching the World Cup football games on tv??
This blasted horn should be banned if they want people to continue to watch the World Cup matches on television.
Ban Vuvuzelas!
I watched USA vs England, and between the drone of the commentator and the drone of these stupid trumpets, I think I’ll mute the next one.
I can barely take it and I am only on game two I have been able to speed up play and watch in silence, but is not near as much fun.
The vuvuzelas is just stupid. I am a world cup fan and love to here the chants. That horn sounds like an overcharged vibratory device.
But somehow if you say anything against the however-you-say-it… craphorns… you’re some kind of cultural imperialist. But I bet the stupid things are made in China.
I think there’s nothing wrong with some benign enthusiasm, no different from thundersticks, cowbells, or whatever else we’re used to in our spectator sports but I think that if Vuvuzelas are allowed to remain in the crowds – it would be fantastic to honk them only to celebrate goals and they must be silent during the national anthems.
It’s interesting you bring this up. There was a debate about these ‘instruments’ on early morning tv this week and it turns out that the English brass band which goes to the matches, is actually louder than all the vuvuzelas – can you believe it? Personally, I find the noise extremely irritating but I suppose it does add to the atmosphere of the matches
