Mama Joy Blames Springboks’ Loss on Her Absence, Fans React: “We Were Fine Without You”

• One of South Africa's most recognised sports fanatics, Joy Chauke said something about the recent match between the Springboks and Ireland
• Mama Joy said that the national rugby team lost because she was not present at the stadium during the game
• The online community reacted to her tweet, with many saying no one said she shouldn't be there but not at the taxpayers' expense

South Africa's Mama Joy took to her Twitter account to say something about the Saturday match, 13 July 2024 between the Springboks and Ireland in Hollywoodbets Kings Park in Durban.

In X (Twitter) post, Mama Joy said in the previous game where South Africa won 27-20 against Ireland breaking the eight-year duck she fasted and prayed for the team, hence the win.

But in the recent game where Springboks lost 25-24 against Ireland, she did nothing. In fact, she woke up and ate pap and vleis and was snacking while watching the game in the comfort of her home. The superfan further made a bet saying if she is present in the next game, Springboks will win the game.
