Look, let’s not beat around the bush here. We are a confident nation, and we do like to win. But, we don’t jinx ourselves here in South Africa. Especially when it comes to something like playing a Rugby World Cup in New Zealand, because, well, that’s just silly. Gautrain marketing department, we’ll remember this if anything happens.
Take a look here, here, and here for some fundamental reasons why we don’t jinx ourselves.
It’s funny to laugh at those situations because those are examples of times when silly countries do silly things.
We’re not silly, Gautrain. Don’t ever do this again.
