i dont have too much of a problem with it, but i see how it can be very annoying, and this concerns me because i personally know sooo many people watching the world cup here in the us because of the exposure and press its getting, and im sure thats the case for millions of other americans, but when they sit down and watch s africa vs mexico and for the first 5 minutes all they hear are these stupid horns, i bet half change the channel.
They are driving everyone nuts! We just mute the commentary and put on music....its not the same.
I get a serious headache and so do countless others....many Facebook groups have popped up over the last day and TV stations the world over have received complaints. Its actually known that these horns can cause permanent hearing loss due to their frequency which goes on for 90 freaking minutes!
I wish a painful death to those that use it for more than 1 minute!
On a positive I was watching ESPN earlier and they were saying how FIFA has launched an investigation into the matter and there is a chance that might be banned early as next week!

FIFA tried to ban it after they heard it on Confiderations Cup last year.. However, it did not work, and they agreed to allow it go ahead in the WC
I've learnt it's not what you have in your life, but who you have in your life that counts
If enough people complain they will get rid of it. Trust me.
Otherwise the TV stations will just quiet the back ground noise. Easy!
FIFA is the head of football, and if they found it annoying, then they can do anything. They do find it annoying, however South Africa federation said it's 'part of their culture'.
Good thing, is that I can hear the England fans with the drums and that..

FIFA won't do shit.
TV Stations and medias, will use noise killer software to filter this motherf**ng noisy shit out.

IRI's politics is no different than handling a pressure cooker ..... As the pressure builds up, you slowly let the steam out just a tad bit so that you don't see overflow, and once the pressure from below is less, you put the lid down again and raise the temperature.
It started out a bit annoying when I first noticed it, but then it kind of sucks you in... instead of my hate growing gradually over time, I got pretty used to it and it gave the game an interesting atmosphere.

Since then, it's been wailing a tender agony of parting, never mentioning the skill that gave it life as a flute." -- Rumi
