The Psychic Octopus

An Octopus in Germany is making headlines. His name is Paul, the "Oracle Octopus" and he's been predicting the results of Germany's World Cup games. Before each German match in the World Cup, Paul makes his predictions, usually at dinner time. Workers at the aquarium he lives in lower two food containers into his tank. Each container has the flag of either Germany or their opponents. The one that Paul eats from is the team that he is choosing to win the match. Each of the previous five times before Tuesday Paul chose Germany. Tuesday is the most recent prediction and was the first time the octopus chose against Germany and picked Spain to win the semi-final.
