Football mobocracy!

The weekend that was! We made it. We beat the giant Eagles. How great! Personally I did wish we win because we do need some positive International PR after all the negative publicity in the press.
Well, we won and the cheering that was thereafter just needs to be mentioned.
I watched the game from home because of obvious reasons....I would not be able to stand either the loss (in case we lost) or the joy and all the excitement that goes along with it.
It is said that human beings are mad but it's the degree of madness in each of us that differentiates us. Ugandan fans went raving mad! Mad like there was no tomorrow. This modicum of luck that came our way through two penalties was the start of this madness. Fans geared themselves to cheer and cheering is what they did, chanting, shouting, horn blowing with all the paraphernalia to add to the noise. To crown this lunacy some fans ripped off their clothes ripped off revealing you know what...Surely, was all this necessary? Had the world come to an end? Medicine men doing their thing so that Uganda wins? What would have happened if we lost? Dig graves and bury ourselves alive. It is just a game of men kicking a ball from one goal post to another.
We won so what? So why the mobocracy? There are other games to come. We do not need to win only one game, we need to win the final big thing, in this case the CAF cup. What say'all?
