Bafunny Bafunny: SA’s Comedy Team for 2010

What if Comedy was a sport? Who will represent South Africa at the World Cup of Funny?

Definition of Bafunny – A South African word for explaining something that is so uncontrollably, rib-ticklingly, snortingly funny, that there are no words to describe it.

(Not to be confused with Bafana Bafana, the South African national football team).

Proudly presented by Loaded Smoothies and MNET, enter left wing Bafunny Bafunny – SA’s star-studded Comedy Team who will feature eight of the funniest stand-up comedians from the Host Country, who will tour South Africa with their special brand of comedy in the lead-up to the World Cup to unite the nation through laughter.

Despite their zero sporting ability, the stand-up show will keep the sport parody alive throughout the tour “fixtures” with each show - or rather “match” - starring the Best in SA Stand-up comedians as “players”, complete with a “coach”, a “captain” and big screens with commentators that will keep the “fans” entertained during “half time”.
