Obama we are sorry
Hello President Obama,
It’s quite unfortunate you’d have to skip dinner today.
We know you’ve been terribly stressed lately: BP, Flotilla, Health Reform, Overweight recruits… and then this happens.
But at least, you know it wasn’t personal. Somebody had to go home and we weren’t ready. Our president likes South Africa very much.
We did our best to make sure your kids were comfortable enough to look dumb on our streets. Don't they look good?
Finally, can you confirm that beating USA doesn't affect green cards and visas? After all, it's just a game right? Quite a number of our celebrants are worried; even though you can't tell from these pictures.
We wish you all the best, and better luck next time. Off we go!
The Happiest Losers Ever (Ghana vs Germany) Celebrations
Soccer fans Representing almost every country of the world gathered together at EPOS in Osu to watch the game on three big screens and a tv
Here is one of the guys at EPOS setting the last one up
In spite of the noisy vuvuzelas and drumming. Most Ghanaians were very very tense and anxious... and for good reason.
For some people, it was a beer gulping galore
New Vuvuzela inventions were also launched
And as usual, we had to end up on Osu Oxford Street:
And Nyani was there live with me doing his own thing :)
And Celebration in Ghana without a few ass shaking and "bumper to bumper" isn't celebration:
The Daily Show takes on the World Cup
June 28, 2010 · 1 Comment
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart sends “correspondent” John Oliver to Johannesburg to learn “… about the rich African culture at the World Cup.”
Brilliant piece. It strikes the right balance between on the one hand, the disdain most fans feel about FIFA, and, on the other, the passion associated with the World Cup. It is also satisfying to see Rich Mkhondo, the spokesperson for organizing committee, exposed as a windbag.
