Uganda Cranes secured a hard-fought victory over South Africa in the African Nations Championship (CHAN) last night, a result that lifted spirits across the country. But while the players earned praise on the pitch, it was the fans in the stands who stole the spotlight online.
Many Cranes supporters turned up in jerseys bearing humorous and often sexualized messages that had little to do with football. From cheeky innuendos to bold declarations, the imprints left social media buzzing long after the final whistle. Phrases like “I Miss Sex,” “Levixone Go Dance Day Animal,” and “Stingy men enough is enough” captured attention, sparking laughter and heated debates alike.
NBS journalist Simon Kaggwa Njala weighed in with a tongue-in-cheek observation: “When you look at the imprints on Cranes supporters’ jerseys you can conclude that 90% of Ugandans’ problems are sexual. We’re a perverted country.” His remark went viral, igniting both agreement and criticism.
For some, the creativity reflected Ugandans’ sense of humor and resilience; for others, it highlighted an obsession with sexual undertones even in moments of national pride.
In the end, the Cranes may have won the game, but their fans’ jerseys ensured the conversation stretched far beyond football. Here are some of the funniest pictures:-
