Paul The Octopus Was Hacked

Paul the ‘Pus is so incredibly good at what he does – eating delicious bivalves and correctly predicting Germany’s outcomes by which flag he chooses (he’s five for five) – he’s struck fear into the hearts and minds of German opposition. Of course, should the opposite occur it would send Germany into tumult, destroying the confidence of Jogi’s lads in the process and spearheading the Spanish to victory.

So the Spanish, presumably, doctored up the old Serbia photo, in which Paul correctly picked a German loss. And it fooled everybody. Everybody. Little bit of a ‘74 reverse, no?

The real thing happens tomorrow – so rest peacefully until then, Germany.

Ooooo. That was dastardly! I cannot help but think those hackers will soon be punished.

Paul is all-knowing.

Looool, like when Argies tried to copy Paul and blackmailed their seal to pick the fish on the argentinian chair. You could clearly see the guy telling her to go to that chair :P

Paul predicted a German victory in the Euro Final 2008, so he was wrong about the last Germany-Spain game. Every streak comes to an end, once.

my octopus theory: how is he pridicting?
ans: i have analysed all his prediction and I have done analysis on assumption that he chooses flags on the basis of colour. i dont know whether the flag is shown to him or not at the time of prediction.
my analysis is as follows:
1) he chooses black colour as most of his sea food might be black, only once he has not done this in case of SERBIA vs GERMANY may be he was in mood of trying some different non-black food.
2) he doesnt like red and white combination may be it is colour of some poisnous sea animal which he must not eat.
and for coming final also he has not choosen HOLAND as it contains red and white combination.
and guys dont blame me if my theory go wrong as this analysis is done in 2 minutes…. ha ha ha
