People hate this plastic rubbish in Europe, Australia etc. Get some earplugs to sell at the gate . One fu.. sound all the time. You must be brain dead to listen to this sound. Do something to welcome our overseas guests. Without their money you can stop building now. The vuvuzelo is causing noise induced hearing loss because 120 dB is not good for anyone.

I'm one of the haters, and live in johannesburg. Aside from being the only "musical instrument" that is tuneless, talentless, and provides only a single discord at high volume, i fully believe the assertion that they were initially stolen off trains. Imagine a train sitting next to the stadium, with it's hooter on full blast. Surely any sane person would ask it to silence? And never mind during the matches, these supporters seem to think it ok to walk home blowing it. An entire city full of obnoxious noise. And recommending people "buy earplugs" (!?) i recommend they stay home. Excellent article, and well represented.

Even the team knows how to sing: http://www.footballiscominghome.net/video/the-vuvuzela-conspiracy/ What is actually funny is that South African fans know how to create a unique atmosphere at the stadium without plastic horns.
