No spice, the Dutch soccer team needs a place to stay.
While the Uruguayans were getting an undeserved peaceful night’s sleep in Newlands (despite a small Twitter campaign calling for Capetonians to please “not” blow vuvuzelas and bang drums outside their rooms), the dutchies were bumming around the Cape of Good Hope looking for a place to stay after Dutch team management underestimated the team’s progress in the tournament.
The Dutch Football Association (KNVB) only made reservations in Johannesburg’s Sandton Hilton hotel up until July 5 – and their home from home is now fully booked.
Keep reading if you’re feeling charitable.
Word is they ended up bunking down at the Castle – one of the guys managed to convince iZiko Museums that their great great great great grandfather’s third cousin, twice removed was buried in the east wall after perishing during construction. No one was very keen to claim relation to Jan van Riebeeck – despite the whole team agreeing that his hair, hat and beard combo was pretty snappy.
If they’d just asked nicely, they could’ve stayed with Seth at the Cape Royale. But then again, they’d have to put up with hoards of super models and CEOs trapsing around the place. Probably not ideal for pre-match preparation.
I would love to put you guys up, but then you know, I’m not sure what my mom would say about it.
Which one of you Joburg 2oceansvibers are gonna give these fine chaps a home for the final?
