Dancing Mascot Goes Viral on TikTok, Mzansi Can’t Get Enough!
South Africans never miss a chance to turn a moment into a viral sensation, and this time, it’s none other than Felix the Cat stealing the show at an FNB Varsity Cup game!
Captured by FNB Varsity Cup #FansThatRock star @mangoza_wasenyandenii on TikTok, Felix was seen vibing to Sponono Sa Mamakhe, a trending sound that first blew up thanks to @mooi_thandeka, a proud mom celebrating her son’s graduation. The original clip melted hearts across Mzansi, as the young graduate smiled through his mom’s playful antics—now, it seems Felix couldn’t resist joining in on the fun too while doing the “hayi kodwa loyiiiso” trend.🏾
