Twitter Delivers Gold With The #MarkFishChallenge

Twitter isn't known for backing down from a challenge. After former Bafana Bafana player Mark Fish's clanger yesterday, social media users stepped up.

Yesterday’s #MarkFishChallenge brought on more than a few laughs.

It all started after Mark Fish failed dismally when attempting to pay tribute to Hugh Masekela, South Africa’s legend jazz musician who passed on Tuesday.

Instead of tweeting a pic of him with Bra Hugh, the former Bafana Bafana footballer paid tribute to the very much alive Sipho “Hotstix” Mabuse.

Awks. You can see the mess up here.

After realising his mistake he quickly detected his tweet, but not before Twitter got hold of it and took on the challenge.

From tweeting pics of Fish and mixing up the names of the person he is standing next to, to mixing up the name of the person completely, it’s highly entertaining:


Can we please take a moment to commend South Africa’s creativity?
