What's that awful buzzing noise in soccer games?

Jaug · 06-11-10, 10:10 AM

Only first game will be this bad. Just wait until tomorrow. Tonights game can be a boring one as well fyi.

In baseball the game stops after every damn 3 outs. Instead of watching paint dry your watching ad after ad after ad

i wish it was bees!!!!! that would really spice things up if a swarm of bees started attacking these fuks

yeah but you're getting action for every out and there can be huge innings of scoring, this is just bees buzzing and slobby kicks around a field for 90 minutes

Don't get me wrong I use to hate baseball, and actually like it now. But football isn't easy sport to like, you have to have either grown up playing/watching it or you have to try it and realise how hard it is to play at a decent level to appreciate it.

Like that goal you just saw looked easy but that first touch was decent but still he hit the ball when it was rolling away from him and he hit it into the sweetest spot of the goal. Keeper had no chance.

Idiots with horns

TexansFan · 06-11-10, 10:52 AM

It's soccer, they need something to keep everyone awake.

2daBank · 06-11-10, 10:53 AM

seriously this is a great idea for soccer, start releasing swarms of bees at different times throughout the game

Wade Dwayne · 06-11-10, 11:27 AM

Fuk i hope they put those horns away for the Aus/Germany match.

DODGERBLUES24 · 06-11-10, 12:15 PM

I stopped going to the rose parade in pasadena because people would be blowing those things the entire time

Karayilan9 · 06-11-10, 12:27 PM

I used to hate them, it grows on you, after a while you get it. They are trying to put off the other team, if it works than its a job well done, supporters are the 12th man. I even got a few vuzuzelas now, great if you want to piss someone off

Sunde91 · 06-11-10, 12:38 PM

They better not be doing this crap in non-African games.

I'd be pissed as a fan/player.

egloff · 06-11-10, 01:32 PM

They will make this terrible sounds the whole wc... it's such a bad monotone sound

mikejamm · 06-11-10, 01:57 PM

What buzzing noise?

Come on, let the vuzuzela world cup fans have their fun! Just goes to show if you can't handle it, you must be gett'in old!

Boscoe · 06-11-10, 02:07 PM

Good God.... that's awful. It used to be cool to hear the chants and crowd singing, but these horns are miserable.

Josu · 06-11-10, 02:14 PM

New reports from SA; all europeans who go to WC 2010 come back deaf. What could it be? What's happening? Is it a new virus? Yes, it's the vuvuzela!!

I'm pretty sure slavery was a tradition but that thankfully was banned. "Tradition" doesn't = Good.

SR · 06-11-10, 03:11 PM

why the **** are they doing it at a france vs. uruguay game. This will be the last african world cup I'll promise you that.

jjgold · 06-11-10, 03:12 PM

Fukkin Bull Horns or Bee Hives

What a fukkin sports

they will, they did it in every concacaf game as well.

first i thought it was a massive hive of african bees, then maybe there was a large industrial sector near the stadium, but no its idiots blowing horns for 2 straight hours.

how do they have the breath to do this stupid shit? mindboggling

odtw524 · 06-11-10, 03:46 PM

those horns are annoying as hell

phenomenon · 06-11-10, 04:05 PM

they should kick France with this football not vuvuzela, U may get used to vuvuzela but not France Football like tonight...

INVEGA MAN · 06-11-10, 04:09 PM

What happens if every game ends in a tie. Who wins the world cup. 2 for 2 so far.

jlgarciaiii22 · 06-11-10, 05:21 PM

That fuKKin noise is the most obnoxious thing I've heard... I'm gonna go ahead a limit my viewing to USA & Italia only, Muted of course!

Incorrect, this annoying noise will be at every game

big joe 1212 · 06-11-10, 05:43 PM

I'm just muting for now on!

itchypickle · 06-11-10, 05:44 PM

Maybe it's just the flies over there...they do like to swarm to shit...and some of the teams playing.,..well...

Slim · 06-11-10, 07:15 PM

The flies are just as bad as in Cleveland.

leeznon · 06-11-10, 07:31 PM

I love the horns. Provides for exciting and loud atmosphere.

I prefer 70,000 fans cheering and singing, but whatever its the World Cup i'll be used to it by tomorrow

blittydeuce · 06-11-10, 07:43 PM

Yep they will use those things during every game.

brko · 06-11-10, 08:58 PM

i posted this one in another thread, but it's not wrong to repeat it hence Repetitio est mater studiorum pas mater!

leeznon · 06-11-10, 10:37 PM

World Cup doesn't have that kind of stuff because the crowd isn't 100% for a team. The fans are from all over the world so they don't know the chants for certain teams.

And the horns are great because its a universal 'language'. It would be weird having shouts in multiple languages, the horns are "One voice."

oxellos · 06-11-10, 10:40 PM

Yeah, it really irritates me. My friend watched the first game in Korean channel. And he said that he couldn't listen to commentators because that stupid bee bee sound was so loud.
