It’s Finally Here!!!
The 2010 FIFA World Cup is in full swing. There’s still plenty of time to celebrate both abroad and at home. Here’s your guide to having the most lekker World Cup Celebration.
- First, read about The Importance of the 2010 FIFA World Cup to South Africa. For the country of South Africa, the World Cup is more than just a bunch of soccer matches, but holds the potential to skyrocket South Africa’s reputation throughout the world and provide prosperity for the developing nation. This is the reason why the whole world needs to rally behind this wonderful country.
- Get yourself some awesome South African Music. Especially for World Cup, you’ll need to download: Waka Waka, Wavin’ Flag and Diski Dance.
- Speaking of the Diski Dance, you better learn it… It’s a dance created especially to celebrate soccer. Children and adults across the country have been learning it and dancing it for months. The details can be found here.
- Practice your Vuvuzela for when Bafana Bafana (the nickname of the SA Football Team), scores a goal. Don’t have a vuvuzela? Then use your own noisemaker. And because the vuvuzela has been widely criticized, here’s my opinion on Why I Support the Vuvuzela.
- Wear your Bafana Bafana Jersey. Every Friday is Football Friday in South Africa. This means everyone in the country displays their patriotism by wearing the official South African Football Team Jersey. Can’t find one at your local sports store? Than wear anything yellow and green.
- Host your party with Amarula. While Castle Lager is probably more appropriate for a sporting event, Amarula is just plain magic.
- Going to watch a few matches in South Africa? Then check out the 1 Thing You Should Do while you’re in your host city.
