Yes, it's true. The psychic octopus, who has the mysterious stage name of "Paul", predicts wold cup results. At least, World Cup results about the German team. About 70% of the time.
Rumor is that FIFA is considering hiring him as a referee, to let them know ahead of time when refs will make a bad call about a goal.
Special thanks to Christine Mabry, who used her psychic powers to know that I would want to know about this octopus.
Just looking at that octopus makes me feel all psychic inside. (Burp) Oh. Strike that.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me, I think soccer would be more popular with Americans if teams had mascots! :D
