Why on earth would anyone take a vuvuzela to Wimbledon?

(I did think it was a bit of a shame they won't allow them in though!)

    Whats even worse is the chap from Henley stating that they don't permit Pianos into the regatta........well that's blown my plans for the summer!

    It never takes long for football fans to introduce / steal ideas to / from different sports....I notice that now the England football fans are passing off the "Barmy Army" as a football supporters club!

    It won't be long before the vuvuzela makes its' appearance at the final hole of the Masters' golf or the deciding frame of the World Championship snooker...

    Could it not be possible that there are people who travel and support both?

    I think a more appropriate question is why would anyone even want one of those things?

    To aid them in their quest to be an annoying tit?
    To err is human, but to make a real balls up takes a super computer.

    I had a play with my wife's vuvuzela last night. I quite enjoyed it but the fun didn't last long :(

    i understand that, as the result of a bizarre and unfortunate spelling mistake, Fuzzy Zoeller has been banned from the US open.

    ach.. while we are blatantly re-telling other peoples jokes!

    I hate it when I go to a vuvuzela concert and a game of football/tennis breaks out.
    Whenever I see an adult on a bicycle, I believe in the future of the human race.

    Some kid just walked down my street (not tremendously far from Wimbledon) with a vuvuzela. I didn't think it was very difficult to 'play' one , but this kid did not even seem to have mastered the rudiments.
