Paul The Octopus Predicts Spain To Win World Cup by oisehumen(m): 1:24pm On Jul 09, 2010 |
DON'T be a sucker — put your money on Spain to win the World Cup. Why? Because psychic octopus Paul has backed the conquerors of his beloved Germany to overcome Holland in Sunday's showpiece final. The eight-legged mystic has a 100 per cent record during this summer's tournament, having successfully called all the results for his side. Paul, from the Sea Life Aquarium in Oberhausen, chooses his winners ahead of matches by plucking a mussel from one of two boxes with each country's flag on. With Spain having defeated Germany in the semi-final, Paul's powers have been called upon to predict a match that does not feature his home country. And he has returned a verdict that will be applauded from Barcelona to Madrid, with Iker Casillas backed to lift the trophy in Johannesburg.

The two-year-old cephalopod has become an international celebrity. There is possibilty of Paul getting it wrong. May be it is just a matter of CO- IN- CI- DEN- CES. May be i'm wrong, or rite. |
Re: Paul The Octopus Predicts Spain To Win World Cup by Olaolufred(m): 2:56pm On Jul 09, 2010 |
May be, as a youth or probably adult, Paul might be able to make better soothsaying now than two years ago. However, all will be quite vivid on sunday nite. |
Re: Paul The Octopus Predicts Spain To Win World Cup by Nobody: 3:27pm On Jul 09, 2010 |
I will stick with Holland, it does not matter what Paul or Silas says. However, Spain are the favourites anyway. |

What is all this hype about Paul, IT is just an OCTOPUS, an animal for that matter. Can he see into the future? Why can't he be predicting FOREX as well, |

Re: Paul The Octopus Predicts Spain To Win World Cup by Nobody: 8:30pm On Jul 09, 2010 |
Next time there is a world football tournament. Paul should be made to pick the world cup winner ever before the tournament starts and we will know he is a true psichic. |
Re: Paul The Octopus Predicts Spain To Win World Cup by dayokanu(m): 11:32pm On Jul 09, 2010 |
Paul normally predicts German games only, People are forcing it to predict for others thats outside his area of specialisation |
Re: Paul The Octopus Predicts Spain To Win World Cup by mamagee3(f): 11:33pm On Jul 09, 2010 |

dayokanu: You're right there. Some business interests must have gone into this. wealthlift: He's been wrong in the past. If I'm right, he pridicted during Euro 2008 that Germany would beat Spain in final but Spain won. |
