The Panman Report; Spain Wins the World Cup!
Roger Smith News; The Panman Report
During my last trip to Spain I learned of the oracle octopus, Pulpo Paul. Apparently a german octopus predicted the victors of every game in the German bracket and eventually predicated Spain to beat Holland in the finals. It was mayhem in Spain as this was their first ever World Cup victory.
“Shoot, for all I know, animals all over the world have always been calling the games….. Pulpo Paul is the man”

The owner of Pulpo Paul would not sell his golden goose but would the clairvoyant Octopus to a Spanish citizen with the understanding that his transportation costs would be covered and that they would not prepare “A la plancha”.
