Paul the Octopus is dead

[Kirsten]

Do you remember Paul, the octopus that predicted the results of the German soccer matches during the last World Championship? I just read that he has died last night in his tank in Oberhausen/Germany. As far as I know, he died of old age.

R.I.P. Paul, you truly amazed the entire soccer world with your predictions last summer!
