Here on home soil o kid does so like a little flashback, it's coming back. Stop stop what you're doing.
Here is another world famous crank.
Car from Darren Wackhead Simpson six exclusive to KFM Mornings.
You know what it's It's quite incredible when you look at today and you walk it back sixteen years ago. This set of coincidences that happened because in twenty ten, eleven eleven June, this very day, sixteen years ago, we were preparing for the opening ceremony in FNB Stadium in Joburg and we were just on a buzz and a pluck, pluck no other as a nation. And also this team were scattered in different parts of the country, living very different lives. Yeah, and we were playing against Mexico in
South Africa. Now it's the return match in the Azteca Stadium in Mexico City, both at extremely high altitudes. That where they're playing tonight is about two two hundred meters above sea level and Joburg is like twy one hundred I think there about. There are so many similarities. It's crazy about this day.
Sixteen years ago.
So while we were on a high, I was up to my things. Of course you were, That's consistent, yeah, and I remember I did so many things, but we pulled this one out. The ocove happened, right, So this was building up. So Germany were arriving. Germany were two days now. This is what happens like behind the scenes that people don't know about, right. So Germany's plane is landing two days away and they were staying at the
Vollemore Hotel and Spa in Centurion. So remember every team had to have a place to stay and a training facility. So this hotel had gone and created a pitch for them to train on, a proper grass two speck according to FIFA regulation pitch. And then what happens is this guy has a bit of fun a party on a Friday night. He's got a lack of car, and he decides, I'm going to go and do doughnuts on this pitch. Oh no, totally unawares that this is the pitch that they've just made for Germany.
Sure.
Yeah, so obviously this hotel they come and they arrive the next day some extent donus. They've ruined this whole pitch that Germany's taking care of coming to train on in two two days. So they got his registration and this is what actually happened. So they got his registration number, They tracked them down and then they started coming with demands. They were like, okay, you're gonna have to pay for this, but it's a bigger situation than just paying for it
because time now. Yeah, so that's was scrooking, Wow, screaking as you would. So that's where are coming. Yeah, okay, and let's let's see where it goes.
But just check out nervous he is, go yore, good.

I'm told you that this field is going to cost seventeen thousand to repair. All right, that is not going to cut it. Okay, this field needs to be redone from scratch. Do you know what that means?
Well, I'm not lacking the sound of it, but keep going on.
The team that is going to be using this field at the risk of them breaking ankles under no circumstance. Is this going to be a patch job. This field needs to be relayed from one end to the other. Do you know how much this field costs us to make?

We were adamant about getting it right for the Germans, and we had it right, and you came drinking and boozing with the boys. You decide to go in your Bucky to go and do donuts on our field, which has caused a monumental stuff up for.
