Can You Stand Vuvuzela Horn? Play 2 Games To Find out!

Whether you have watched it at stadiums or on TV, the most annoying and controversial thing in this year's South Africa "World Cup" Football is, undoubtedly Vuvuzela (Yes! that endless, high-pitched drone), the air horn which can emit sound at 100 odd dB - contributing to football matches with precariously high sound pressure levels for unprotected ears.

Vuvuzelas have been criticized for noise-induced hearing loss, potentially spreading colds/flu viruses on a greater scale than coughing/shouting and finally drowning the sound & atmosphere of football games. Commentators have described the sound as "annoying" and "satanic" and compared it with a stampede of noisy elephants/a deafening swarm of locusts/a goat on the way to slaughter/a giant hive full of very angry bees.

OK! Here comes couple of 'very pleasing to your ears' Vuvuzela application/game.

Caution: Play at your own risk ;-)

1. The Vuvuzela Button! - Press the Horn to Hear. You can change it's color too :-) (Less Annoying)

I could manage to stand Vuvuzela sound through my speakers at high volume for 7 seconds only. Freaking noisy indeed.
