And this just in to CNN, some sad news to report to you today. Paul, the World Cup psychic 1 octopus 2 dead. That news coming from the aquarium 3 in Germany where Paul correctly predicted, I guess, all of the winners. He's an inspired gamblers, confounded oddsmakers and angered fans. That would be the German octopus who made headlines by picking the winners of all the World Cup matches including the final.
He forecast all six of Germany's World Cup games including the lost to Spain in the semifinal, so..
Yes,he was loved by some, reviled 4 by others because of his predictions, but the poor guy died. What a shame. (you know poor guy)
