Wow! The programmers and developers at YouTube! must have been either incredibly stoned, or insanely bored when they came up with this idea.
Why did someone think this was a good idea?
Essentially all it does is when you click it, it lays on top of the original soundtrack of the youtube video you are watching with that of the most annoying crowd noises and those stupid plastic horns. It is obviously supposed to make it seem as though you are at the FIFA World Cup but I seriously don’t see the point.
The best random addition to YouTube made to date is when they had the Textp option for watching your favourite videos in ASCII format. Those of you that have used VLC Player will know what I am talking about. It was about as pointless as the Soccer crowd button, but it at least was cool in its own right.
The first time I saw the button I assumed it was some sort of help button as it looked like a life preserver. Once I pressed it and heard the result, I could see they meant it to be a football. It’s the whole ‘Void Space’ thing.
Anyway, tell me what you think of this feature. Is it good? Is it not? Leave your responses in the comments section below.
Peace out,
