And so after only hearing of the hype surrounding football, the time has arrived! It’s official. South Africans are ready for the Beautiful Game. All around the country, stadia are being opened officially, vuvuzelas are being sold and football Friday has become the norm instead of casual Friday.
But what will we do after the month is over? What will we wear on Fridays and how will we use our new vuvuzelas?
At least we have the pleasure of hosting an international spectacle and teaching the world about the REAL South Africa. They get to experience our famous friendliness. They get to eat pap en vleis. They see how you really have a barbeque. They take home a plastic trumpet which is not easy to use.
