Just carry a can of expanding foam with you and give it squirt down his horn (sounds painful)
I will guarantee they will worm there way into british football

I don't like football, and I'm having to put up with that and that stupid drone for hours. I'd prefer to hear chanting and fans singing the songs, with ooos and aaaahs when they miss goals etc. But you can't hear any of that for fudging constant drone. I said last night I'm surprised it doesn't put off the players!

Annoyed me during the opening game but tbh I've subconsciously tuned it out - doesn't bother me now

France captain Patrice Evra has already said it was the Vuvuzela's fault they were so poor

What was that, specialone?
Couldn't hear.
. . ."Pull my finger and you will hear the vuvuzela"
There's an easy answer:The wretched things have a pointy end ( sound familiar? ) and a blunt end. Insert whichever is more appropriate and walk away slowly.

Number 687 in the 'big book of excuses' .

The noise doesn't bother me, just wish the football was a bit better!

People will be complaining that the sun is too bright next and that they have to turn the brightness down on their tellies

Don't watch the football but this is getting a lot of press coverage.

Don't see why it should be banned; most people on here are the first to complain when "nanny state" authorities ban something. It is a rubbish excuse because it is the same for both teams. The fact that there are so many of them at the games shows that a high proportion of the crowd enjoy them. I'd ban football, but others disagree. C'est la vie.

I wondered what the strange racket was, I arrived into work today and someone was watching the game (during a break, of course) and there was this buzzzzzzzz and I didn't realize that was what it was!
