Vuvuzelas have created more noise in the past one week than the football world cup itself. #vuvuzela has been trending on twitter ever since the inception of world cup. It has been proving to be a constant menace to the TV broadcasters who have been asking for a ban on them from the stadiums. There has been anti-vuvuzela campaigns all over the net. There even has been a MP3 file that can be downloaded and played along with the match to counter the noise of vuvuzelas.
Vuvuzela in local language (Tsawana) is known as 'lepatata' meaning 'stadium horn'. The sound level of the instrument is 127 decibels that has the possibility of creating permanent hearing impairment. To counter this sound 'shu-shu-zelas' have been developed which are now available at stadiums in Durban.
One thing for sure this football season "Love It or Hate It, you just cannot Ignore the VUVUZELAS"
