During the England vs Algeria FIFA World Cup match in South Africa, the following conversation takes place through the buzzing of the ubiquitious blowing of vuvuzelas:

Spectator Two: (stops blowing his vuvuzela) WHAT?
Spectator One: WILLIAM AND HARRY ARE AT THE MATCH TODAY

Spectator One: PRINCES WILLIAM AND HARRY ARE HERE TODAY
Spectator Two: ARE YOU SURE? I DON'T SEE THEM
Spectator One: THEY'RE THE ONES NOT BLOWING VUVUZELAS
