How funny, that's pretty much what the land divers on Vanuatu wear before they jump off that massive tower into the dirt. Very, very similar. I wonder if they use them as instruments too?

And nor do I ! I have lived in South Africa for more than 5 years, played football there myself and went to other sport festivals. Believe me, in those years I have never seen or heard one single Vuvuzela. To say that it is something traditional in South Africa to blow this instrument continuously during football games is absolute bullshit ! Some clever business guy must have come up with this idea, bribed the FIFA, is selling this thing in the millions and is giving the FIFA their share.
