If you were actually in the stands it probably wouldn't sound the same since your point of reference would be totally different.

"The atmosphere I like and am used to is drowned out by the atmosphere you like and are used to."

Yes, it's an endless drone on TV and my wife doesn't love it, but it is unique to this World Cup and gives it its own flavour. Come visit me in Summer and our heat is dry and merciless all day. Visit the tropics and the night is filled with cicadas for hours on end. They're things which not everyone will love, but they help define these places.

The vuvuzelas are not forever, but they help define the 2010 WC.

You cannot hear it on TV, but the combination of cheering, taunting and vuvzela's is just magical (from the stands).
