This 1 meter long plastic horn has been the talk of the FIFA 2010 Football World Cup. In fact, #vuvuzela even became the first World Cup related trend on Twitter. However, it seems the world has been polarised by this simple "instrument". There are those that love the frivolity of the vuvuzela and those that hate it. FIFA was even asked by some quarters to ban the instrument at World Cup matches. FIFA Chairman Sepp Blatter had this to say about the argument (on Twitter): "“I don’t see banning the music traditions of fans in their own country. Would you want to see a ban on the fan traditions in your country?"
Now the world is subjected to the droning of thousands of vuvuzelas at every game. The sound is akin to a giant swarm of bees.
What is a vuvuzela?
