    No, this isn't about soccer, it is about a very annoying WC gimmick. The most annoying I can ever remember.

    I find it very annoying.

    If the excuse is "but it's their culture," then their culture seems a bit retarded.

    I was going to raise that here earlier, but those those pesky nazi Mods would kick me to death..

    Yes, I tried watching the Engerland -V-USA gamer earlier and had to admit defeat to the blowing at half time.

    Its awful, whats the criac with it?.

    it neutralises the crowd

    you can't tell which side the noise is from and if it's approval or not

    bring back chants and booing

    It's annoying as hell and makes no sense at all. It's just a damn noise. If a child finds something that'll make an annoying noise at least they'll get sick of it after an hour or two! As for culture? If this passes for culture they the South Africans really are scraping the bottom of the barrel.

    It must be seriously deafening in the stadium, and how the hell the players can concentrate I don't know. I will seriously end up watching less games because of this.

    Hard enough to watch on TV, imagine how travelling fans must feel, trying to enjoy the game in the stadium with all that crap going on!:mad:

    Surprised there hasn't been any riots (yet)!

    Indeed, maybe instead of it generating brown noise it generates a pink noise

    You wouldn't be complaining if you were there.
