Thank you

I'll do my best. This madness starts here today, the place is simply buzzing with anticipation. In true South African style, people are going apeshit, even in the small town we live in. Not near a stadium to watch, but you can feel it. Now that it's almost underway, there should be a lot more stuff to post.

My post above, the first few pics were of the SA team Bafana Bafana being parade for fans in Sandton, Johannesburg a couple of days ago.
You may notice a trumpet looking instrument, called a Vuvuzela (vuvu-zehla).
That thing is freakin loud. I am sure if you saw a broadcast of an international friendly from SA you would have seen/heard it.

Today, as in all other fridays before, we get all dressed up and fly the flags, blow the vuvuzelas and act like madmen. I'll post a few pics later after I get home (now 5h35 am) from work. Oh freakin yes I am taking off early to watch the opening ceremony and SA vs Mexico on telly.

Confetti falls over the crowd as Shakira performs at the World Cup Launch Concert at the Orlando Stadium in Soweto on June 10, 2010 in Johannesburg, South Africa. Tens of thousands of people came out to see Shakira, American artists The Black Eyed Peas, John Legend and African singers such as Tumi Molekane, a day ahead of the opening games of the World Cup

Epic, thank you.

I can only imagine the atmosphere, I was in Glasgow when Real Madrid won the Champions League in 2002 and when Sevilla won the UEFA Cup in 2007 and the atmosphere was awesome but it'll be nothing compared to a World Cup.

The opening ceremony was truly African.

South Africa the underdogs held Mexico to a 1-1 draw, having scored the first goal in the second half followed by a soft goal from Mexico.

The boys played an outstanding game today!! We are STILL undefeated in the last 13 games...

1 point considering the team we played is just plain fuckin AWESOME!!

Shame for you. It's the SA team 12th man, Welcome to Africa fucker. Screw the fanny-ass chanting of overseas teams, here we make a noise for all to hear.
GTFO if you can't stand the heat !!
