Hamtaro Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Uhhhh...... What is a Vuvuzela? Good job being totally ignorant of current eventsGood job being a jerk? I didn't realize that sports constituted current events. Anyway, a Vuvuzela is a trumpet like horn that alone sounds like an elephant, but in groups sound like a bunch of bees. They became popular (or rather well known) during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa (where they supposedly originated from). It's impossible to watch a match without hearing people in the crowd blow them. People either love them or hate them, there's no in-between. Jagex being a British based company means they most likely love football (soccer here in the U.S.). They placed this sound into RuneScape, most likely as a joke, or just to annoy their players. Hope this clears it up. Player since 2004.

However, American football has become too much of a tradition here for anyone to even consider changing the name, especially knowing its major fanbase (it is pretty fun to watch, though). The reason that I believe football (soccer) isn't popular in the U.S. is that we take for granted always being able to watch the best athletes in the world compete here on our own soil. That isn't the case for football (maybe with the exception of Landon Donovan, of course :grin: ). In MLB (Major League Baseball) and the NHL ([inter]National Hockey League), we import the best players from around the world. In the NFL (National [American] Football League) and NBA (National Basketball Association), we have the best born on our own soil (because no one else plays them). In MLS (football/soccer), we mostly have players who aren't nearly as good as those from Europe or South America, so we get bored and wait for international matches to begin, before we even consider watching. I know I do that and I consider football (soccer) my favorite sport... That's just what I believe and may not even be the case. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Player since 2004.

lordkafei Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 To all you snotty Brits who are carrying on about the word "soccer" - it has British origins: Now British school boys of the day liked to nickname everything, which is still somewhat common. They also liked to add the ending er to these nicknames. Thus Rugby was, at that time, popularly called Rugger. Association Football was then much better known as Assoccer, which quickly just became Soccer and sometimes Soccer Football.
