Lol i believed dat india vs nigeria football match dat india won by 99 - 1

my own stupidity had some spice to it. I was told Roger Miller (of Cameroon) had to come in from the stands to help Nigeria score the alleged penalty kick. I was told he took off one of his soccer boots, placed it beside the ball then played the boot towards the right hand side of the goal post while he played the ball to the left hand side.

Mehn! the Indian goal keeper jumped like a cat to catch the shot only to realise he had been deceived. the following fabu of the story made me laugh at my infantile folly:

1. India told Nigeria that if we could score a goal they will concede the match to them.

2. India played barefooted.
3. Roger miller of Cameroon came to score for Nigeria from the stands.
4. The ball turned into a lion face anytime the Indians attacked the Nigerian goal post.

as in Ehn, I just weak for my gocking.

I was told that people on TV could see me, so I always had to take a bath before watching TV
( to look presentable "imagine"wink

That we fell from aeroplanes, so whenever I heard an aeroplane noise I would run outside to see if the baby will drop from it so I can catch the baby (only for me to be disappointed)

That if you put your tooth in a shoe and leave it there for the entire night, your great grandmother will put something special in the shoe (cut the story short) my tooth fell out and I told my granny about it, she said do as I told you before and I did ( best day of all times) In the morning I found 2 Rand in the shoe(should have seen my face) My tooth fell out again but this time I didn't tell her so I did what I did the last time but I didn't get anything this time (sigh)
