South Africa ponders vuvuzela ban after complaints
South Africa's World Cup organising chief Danny Jordaan may ban vuvuzelas from inside stadiums after complaints from broadcasters and supporters.
The constant sound of the high-pitched horn-like instrument has so far drowned out any of the atmosphere-generating singing usually associated with games.
Oh, let's hope so, FIFA was aware of this before and could/should have banned them from the start. One of their reasons for not doing so was the claim that the vuvuzelas things are "part of the African heritage" apparently, what mass produced plastic trumpets?Quote:
