What a superb addition to the world cup watching experience. It's so nice to listen to these beautiful musical instruments buzzing in your ear for 90 minutes. :unsure:

Big Hooters
 
I want to watch most of the England -Australian games. I do watch soccer once every 4 years.:thumbup:

One drawback.

The constant bloody sirens and hooters I can hear in the current Gre-Kor game a real pain. A real distraction.

Coupled with moronic chants I can see no way out...

Yeah I think it is one of the most annoying features of this world cup.

On the the other hand if they showed a few big hooters ever few minutes, I could tolerate the noise :p

I watched a match last night and honestly thought it was a broadcasting error! If you're an ear doctor I'd be getting over there and setting up pretty soon, it'll be a licence to print money.:lol:

You would think they could wire some of those noise cancelling headphones to the microphones, The horns although they blow just plain suck:lol:

Im all for atmosphere but its something I want to breathe not listen too.

Rugby's on. No Hooters (of any type).

I honestly think sometimes soccer is a child's game.:blink: I want to like it, really like it, but they make it hard.
