The Football Fan Couture Contest saw three superfans from Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns battle it out for top honours.
David Tlale was assigned to take care of the Amakhosi faithful alongside superfan Alfred Baloyi, while Craig Jacobs tended to the Buccaneers with fanatic Eugene Khoza (not the comedian) and Anisa Mpungwane took on Amasandawana with Lizzy Matseke.
