Thulani Ngcobo is 29 jaar oud en van Soshanguwe af. Hy smaak Kaizer Chiefs en Bafana stukkend en is een van Suid-Afrika se grootste
sokker fans. Dis seker ook een van die redes hoekom sy nickname Ngcobo2010 is. Suck on that, FIFA! Die bra probeer sover moontlik, elke Bafana match en Chiefs game in SA bywoon.
Nou check hierie cool shit uit:
Thulani het deelgeneem aan MTN se "Last Fan Standing" kompetise, deurgegaan na die final 8 toe en op die ou einde na 'n klein hectic 40 punte multiple choice eksamentjie die kompetisie gewen. Eksamens is tos, maar duidelik ken hy sy shit as dit by sokker kom.
Wat hy gewen het is fokken all expenses paid, my blare: Kaartjies vir 38 van die 64 FIFA World Cup games. Hy kan obviously nie elke liewe match gaan kyk nie omdat 25 van die games gelyktydig gespeel gaan word. Hy kan homself nie in twee skeur nie – dit sal fok met sy basic loop en eet vibes, jy maak uit?
Wat dit nog cooler maak is dat hy die Guiness World record sal breek vir die meeste Fifa World cup matches bygewoon deur 'n individu.
Hier is so bietjie logistics vir julle. Dit gaan nie fokken maklik wees nie:
- Al tien stadiums, 9 stede, 8 groepe en ten minste 30 van die kompeterende spanne
- 28 pool games (nie fokken poolwat jy in die pub speel nie) wat die opening ceremony insluit
- 4 rontes van 16 matches, 2 quarter-finales, 2 semi-finals
- Die playoff vir die houtlepel (derde plek)
- Die final natuurlik
- Meer as 17000km se travel – good luck vir jou boude, ou tjomma.
- Meer as 3400 minute se live sokker action
Ons het Thulanie ge-corner (fokken bad pun, ek weet) vir so paar vrae:
griff: So you are the last fan standing hey? Congrats! You are going to kakloads of FIFA WC games, my bru. In fact, 38 of them. Tell me, what is
this prize worth to you personally and secondly how much is it worth in Rands more or less?
Thulani: Yeh, I am The MTN Last Fan Standing! Thanks! This price to me means a lot of things! It's a dream come true to me, since I'm a soccer loving slave. I've been watching the previous World cup games on TV but this time I'm going to watch it live because of MTN! This is a once in a lifetime experience my broer. I can't stop smiling when I think of it. The most of it is that I'm going to be in the Guinness World Records' Book! The price? I'm not sure about it but it is worth big bucks!! Not any company can afford it but MTN!:-)
griff: What is your normal dayjob?
Thulani: I work in the Asset Management section as Asset Controller at The Department Of Rural Development And Land Reform (previously known as Department of Land Affairs) in Pretoria-Head Office.
griff: If you win this Guiness World record, what do they give you? Any fancy prizes?
Thulani: So far what I know is that I'm going to get a medal and GWR Certificate.
griff: They must give you some zak too, man. Let’s say you break this record, which I am sure you will, will you try and go for any other world records?
Thulani: Definitely yes!
griff: Have you ever met the whole Bafana squad or the whole Kaiser Chiefs squad, seeing that they are your favourite teams?
Thulani: I've not yet met them but I'm in the process to meet Bafana Bafana soon and I wish to meet Kaizer Chiefs players too.
griff: Hopefully you get to meet all of them. Who is you most favourite soccerstar in the whole world and why?
Thulani: Lionel Messi is the BEST (In the world)! Since I was born, I haven't seen any player playing better than him. He is confident on the ball, he can protect the ball very well and his teammates trust him. I also like Siphiwe Tshabalala (In SA) not only because he is a Kaizer Chiefs player but I because of the way he distributes and hold balls. He can score goals given a chance and he can also create chances.
griff: Tell us about the most exciting game you’ve ever been to or the most amazing goal that you have witnessed.
Thulani: It was the last Soweto derby played at Soccer City (then called FNB Stadium) between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates. We were losing by one goal to nil until Shaun Bartlett equalised with a wonderful header from a nice taken corner kick in the last minute of the game (94th). We celebrated the whole night for that goal because we didn't want to loose against Orlando Pirates!
griff: Do you think you should go work for Kaiser Chiefs? I think they need someone like you.
Thulani: Eish! I would like to if I can be given a chance! :-)
griff: Hopefully some grootkop from Chiefs is reading this. With your travels now during the World Cup, will you be visiting any place for the first time ever?
Thulani: No, I've been in every stadium. Unless hotels.
griff: Fok, I've only been to one stadium. I went to the rugby semi-finals in Soweto. What is your thoughts on the first ever international rugby
game in Soweto?
Thulani: To me it was emotional, especially seeing old black men & women sharing beers with white men in the township! That was the most exciting part to me. I'm happy that we are united in South Africa.
griff: Ja, dit was nogal kiefpiele. Do you watch any other sports besides soccer?
Thulani: Yes, I sometimes watch cricket.
griff: What are your hobbies?
Thulani: I like going to watch my favorite sport, soccer, every weekend and everytime there is soccer.
griff: Jirre, hectic, so geen breiwerk of stamp collecting vir jou nie. Who is going to play in the finals, and who is going to win the WC2010?
Thulani: It's going to be South Africa vs Brazil and South Africa is going to win it.
griff: Well, Bafana don't seem to be doing too kak lately. Let's hope for the best. What do you think of www.watkykjy.co.za ?
Thulani: Your web? :-) It's an interesting one! I like your one picture (Poesgroot World Tour). Ha ha!
Ek skiem dit gaan 'n fokken lekker epxerience wees vir Thulani. Maybe kom tune hy ons wat alles gebeur na die World Cup en hy 20 dae geslaap het om te herstel.
Interview: Clayton Cubitt
We asked Clayton some questions:
griff: How the fuck are you? Had a nice day?
Clayton: I'm very fine. Today was 9/11 in NYC but instead of getting attacked we hung out at a rooftop pool with some nice friends, which is all you can really ask for in life.
griff: Wat kyk jy?
Clayton: Gesundheit!
griff: If I send you a fucking cool watkykjy shirt, would you dress a friend with nice boobs in it, make her bend over and take a nice photo for me that I can put on my fridge? If she has orange poes hair, it's also OK, I will just colour in over the grey with a magic marker.
Clayton: I might! It would have to be a pretty fucking cool shirt, though. And I don't know anyone with grey pubes yet. But we could put out a casting call.
griff: Have you photographed more people than Larry King has interviewed on CNN?
Clayton: I doubt it. He's been around for a really long time. I've probably photographed as many people as Rachel Maddow has interviewed on MSNBC. But I'm more about the quality over quantity, in all things.
griff: The Saatchi gallery had a lot of nice things to say about you. Are they true?
Clayton: All good things you hear about me are true, and a few of the bad things.
griff: What is the the best photoshoot you have ever done and why?
griff: You’re not that guy that cut up half a shark with its penis sticking out and put in the Saatchi are you?
Clayton: No, that's Damien Hirst. Although I do have a tiny fetal shark in a jar on my bathroom counter. I got it in Florida, which is the shark-attack capital of the USA.
griff: Not a lot of people know this, but you are actually the dude who triggered the interest in Die Antwoord on the interwebs. World Wide. How did you come across them the first time?
Clayton: I'm always looking for amazing things online, underground things or
forgotten things, things that are well done and real. I stumbled upon their Zef Side clip when it had just a few views, and the preview image of Yo-Landi dancing looked intriguing so I watched it and the whole thing hit so hard I knew it needed to be seen by everyone. I'm fascinated with post-colonial culture clashes and evolutions. So is my friend Xeni Jardin at BoingBoing, so she was one of the friends I made watch this clip, and she loved it and posted it, and the rest is history!
griff: You eventually met my friends, Ninja and Yo-Landi. Do you know that they went across to the overseas and met everyone that helped them go superlarge on the interwebs?
Clayton: I believe it. They're two of the sweetest, most genuine people I've ever met, very giving and no bullshit.
griff: Did you ever imagine meeting such next level people?
Clayton: I only leave the house to meet next level people.
griff: When ninja stayed at your house, did he also fuck up your frying pan making eggs or did you make them food?
Clayton: We were so busy making images and planning world domination we almost forgot to eat. So we ordered in some sandwiches I believe. And then Ninja rolled a Zef blunt the size of a baby's arm and we got back to work. One time we went to an Italian restaurant near Times Square and our waiter was a Japanese guy who claimed to be a samurai and serenaded Yo-Landi as he was taking our order.
griff: Have you ever been to South Africa?
Clayton: Not yet, but I'd love to go. I'm just waiting to be invited.
griff: Did you delete all the naked pictures of Yo-Landi afterwards?
Clayton: I don't think anyone's publicly acknowledged the existence of naked pictures of Yo-Landi.
