As the Delta airline discovered that no giraffes in Ghana

In Ghana, only giraffes in zoos. This is the harsh reality that the American airline Delta discovered--the hard way. During the game Ghana vs United States, counting towards the World Cup, the company posted a message on social networking site Twitter that identified the United States with the statue of liberty, and Ghana with a giraffe.

However, the tweet made a huge gaffe: no giraffes in Ghana. Except, possibly, in zoos. View tweet.



























Despite the success of the tweet â€" which gave the congratulations to Clint Dempsey, scorer of the opening goal â€" someone has warned the Delta of the gaffe, at which the company withdrew the tweet and, in another statement, apologized for the mistake.
