Your absolute essential fan kit for the Soccer World Cup in South Africa this year consists of 6 items:
You cannot be seen anywhere without your makarapa and vuvuzela.
A makarapa is a modified miner's hat that sports your teams colours, logo or team mascot. It is not so much for protection, but decoration.
A vuvuzela is an african trumpet-a descendant of a kudu horn perhaps-and one sounds like a trumpetting elephant..many of them sound like, well, an elephant war and although the hearer has much less fun than the blower (and there is an art to blowing it!)get one! Also buy earplugs to go with it-tiny soccer balls with tiny vuvuzelas attached to form an earplug on sale now.
Next get a video to learn the moves of the diski dance,you cannot support your team with make shift macarena moves..get withit.....
Support your team Bafana Bafana!Show your solidarity and loyalty to your LOCAL team..no matter how they play..there are bigger issues here.
Wave that beautiful flag! Remember the red goes at the top
and it was a long hard road to get that flag. Be proud! Be South African!
Last but by no means least, get zakumi, the sweetest mascot. He is a dreadlocked leopard, full of energy and enthusiasm. His name is made up of za-south africa's international code and kumi -a word meaning 10
