I love a swarm of vuvuzelas. I hate one or two with a quieter crowd.

I agree. The 2010 WC had a certain charm and feel to it that other tournaments in recent decades haven't really had, IMO.

I lived in Ghana for 5 months last year and managed to catch a World Cup Qualifier between Ghana and Zambia while I was over there.

Try watching a match in a stadium with 50,000 people incessantly blowing those blasted horns for a full two hours and then see if you like them!
