Paul the Freaking Octopus is Messing with us Germany Fans!
This morning I woke to news that Paul the German Octopus had chosen Spain to win tonight’s Soccer World Cup semi-final game against Germany! And Paul hasn’t been wrong over the last three weeks or so – not yet anyway.
Does that octopus not have anything better to do?
At least normal South African programming wasn’t interrupted to break the news, unlike in Germany itself.
Yet you can’t get away from news on that ridiculous octopus’s prediction today. The Cape Times ran an article, Google News had a few headlines and people were talking about it.
Fortunately for octopuses everywhere I am vegetarian! Because I’m not particularly liking their species today.
Germany will just have to defy Paul the Octopus’s prediction and win the match by playing the fantastic soccer they’ve provided so far.
Although I won’t be putting money on a German win – just in case Paul knows of what he predicts.
