Eight legs. Eight correct predictions. What a way to go out on top.
Paul the Psychic Octopus (or "Pulpo Paul") was perhaps the best storyline in a World Cup that might otherwise be remembered for a myriad of bad calls made by referees.
He was honored with a World Cup of his own, complete with a few mussels that he devoured in the same manner as his correct picks.
So, in honor of Paul retiring as a perfect predictor of all seven German World Cup games and Spain’s victory in the final, we will talk about good calls.
