Travel to South Africa for the next World Cup? I hear all types of stories about the crime there. Is it really that bad or is it over blown.

I would like to go to watch the world cup in 2010,although it seems that there are alot of problems in south africa, but i think the government will try to do something in these few years to improve, and history told us when the world cup started, even those trouble makers will be silent,may be they know it is a big event, if they create any troubles, they are damage the reputation of their countries. Last world cup, even the rogues in germany or uk did not really cause big problem ,so i assume it shoudl eb safe in south africa.

As i know soccer in the states is developing quite well, as more and more players like david beckham go to major league soccer, the standard of soccer in the states may be much better, as we had seen from the past decades, USA is playing better and better in each world cup even being knocked out in group stage in germany in 2006.

I wouldn't go there.. no.. Not because i've heard bad things. like wanna-be gangsta who kidnap you for money? but because i can't stand hot weather and i've never been that far away from home. Plenty i could say but no i wouldn't. ~Joey

Yes, I was disapointed when I first heard it was there. Guess I'll be watching it on the TV. Plus, my sad ol' American team just isn't up to the World level yet.

No I would not go. One, I am not interested in sports, and two I would be afraid of the crime.

Sorry that you do not like sports. Now, are you saying that you do not like sports of any kind?
