29" Blue Collapsible Stadium Horn (24/Cs)

This is one of the better four dollar and 66 cent purchases of my life. It arrived a day before the grandkids came over for a visit. "What is that Papa?" "Oh, let me show you!" The seven-year old grandkids caught on right away. The fourteen month old one took, oh, just a bit longer -- but not much. It is such a fun little device -- fun, yet annoying to anyone who doesn't like Vuvuzelas. (Look on youtube and you'll see just how much the crazy leader of the WW-II Axis powers hates these things and their impact to the game of soccer!!) Thinking of my neighbors within hearing distance, I can only hope it annoys just one of them. OK, at least one of them. It is absolutely amazing how the fine sound from this horn echos through the woods. In closing, I'd highly recommend this for anyone who treks in the wilderness -- never know when you'll have to call attention to yourself for a rescue, eh? My only regret? I should have bought a few more.

It extends into one big piece but it isn't two separate pieces. The fact that you can break it down to one small piece helps for when you're taking it into a stadium or crowd. It fits perfect in a purse, backpack or small bag. The material isn't flimsy either. It's plastic but not breakable plastic. In terms of loudness, it does the job fairly well. It's not air horn loud but it is noticeable. I used it for my sister's graduation and when I entered the auditorium (seats 1000) I was a little afraid it would go unnoticed. Well when I hid under the benches so I wouldn't get caught and blew it, trust me, it went very noticed! I had to leave it behind so I wouldn't get apprehended. Overall, I would/will definitely buy this horn again. I was very satisfied with its performance.

I bought 20 of these stadium horns for a World cup 2010 birthday party for a group of 12-20 year olds. We were in a conference room at the university gym,(so we could run downstairs during the break to play indoor soccer)watching the final game--spain vs netherlands. We were glued to the screen and when spain scored all 20 of the vuvuzuelas went off! It was awesome....other guests of the gym came into our room to see what all the noise and excitement was about! It was hilarious! So, they were an excellent purchase...they did exactly what I wanted them to do...they lent some authenticity to the party, they were great favors, and they made lots of obnoxious noise to celebrate the winning goal! P.S. there is a technique to successfully making the vuvazuelas make noise. So we did have to practice for just a minute to get the sound right, but the kids did NOT care!!!

Delivery was just as predicted but the delivery box made me wonder what I had really ordered. Turns out that the horns are two piece construction and delivered in a box roughly half of the original length. The horn worked as expected but couldn't take the full rigors of the environment for which it was purchased. About 4 days into use, the horn developed a minor break in the joint that would occasionally allow the mouthpiece to slide on through. We used some duct tape to repair the joint and all worked well through the rest of the week. If you are using this product strictly by oneself, then I'm sure it would have held up better, however, when it is passed through a group of about 40 youngsters to identify when flags or an assembly will be held, it won't last the week without purchasing a backup horn.

This is a great gift for Somebody Else's Kids. :-) But, for $5, you could do better. I got this last minute, and that it's so cheap and liable to break is probably a blessing. One thing people haven't noted is your lips and face will turn blue from the powder. You might want to wash this thing before use.

I found this recently, haven't used it in years. We bought it because we had a horrible neighbor. His music was so loud you could hear it at the end of the block. And he would not stop no matter who asked. I'm not talking about good music either. He was a bass player and all he could do was go up and down the scales every night. It was full on three fingered mullet rock for about two hours at a time. So we bought this, well, I bought this. Waited patiently while he got into his rhythm and then blasted it through the window. It was terrible but it was funny. Truly loved this thing but I dread to think what a stadium full of people might sound like. The neighbor is long gone now, happily. But the fond memory of the vuvuzela lives on in a corner of our bedroom.

I was exceptionally excited when i heard i had a package in the mail. when i opened the exceptionally light box, i found my treasured vuvuzela inside. it extended easily, but the first note played was a buzzy "buh". after another try or two, i looked into the horn to find some odd device hiding within. turns out this vuvuzela contained some kind of reeded noisemaker for those unfamiliar with blowing horns. so i just blew air through, and it sounded like an obnoxious saxophone. the noisemaker was easily knocked out by using a large, heavy pin, but the first few notes produced were quite pathetic compared to the first vuvuzela i had played. i was severely disappointed, but then i blew that first clear vuvuzela note, and was extremely pleased with the product. tl;dr: easily telescopes in and out of playing position for transport or whatever noisemaker inside allows for easy play, or can be removed for louder, authentic play it's a freakin' vuvuzela.

I don't even know where to start..... This is this a piece of junk and I worth nothing.....I cannot believe I even spent 5 or whatever dollars on this! First off, when me and my brother got the package, the package was horribly packed and literally broken...the horn came bent! Once we barely got in assembled together, we started to use it and after 5 min of use there was blue color all over our hands and mouth....I have no idea what is was but all i know was that it came from the horn.....I am definitely going to find out because this could be a health risk!!! I dont understand how this could even happen! NEVER ever buy junk like this from this seller! Make sure its at least good quality USA made.... THis is just rediculous...
