“I Remember That Song”: Springbok Fan’s Moves to Leon Schuster’s Old Track Entertain South Africans

• A local content creator danced to an old song by Leon Schuster, the day before the Springboks won the Rugby Championship
• Dressed in green and gold, the Springbok fan mouthed the words to the song as he busted his moves
• Several social media users gathered in the TikTok post's comment section with laughter, with one person sharing that they remembered the 1995 song

Mr Saffa, a proud South African content creator, showed off his dancing skills in Springbok gear as he danced to Bang Johanna by comedian Leon Schuster. His funky moves left his TikTok post's comment section filled with laughter.

On 3 October 2025, Mr Saffa took to his account on the app to upload a video of himself vibing to the song and told the online community:

"It's Bok Friday, and time to take that cup again."

Although his facial expression looked serious as he mouthed the words to the 1995 song, his dancing was the complete opposite.
