Forums - General - Paul's Dead :-(

sapphi_snake on 26 October 2010

Paul the octopus, who managed to correctly the winner of the 2010 World Cup, was found dead today in his tank.

He will be cremated sometime in next few days, and his urn will be held on display in a memorial in his honor.

He was 2 1/2  years old.

(They say that he died of natual causes, but I think this was an assassionation carried out by order of the president of Iran: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/germany/7912418/Mahmoud-Ahmadinejad-attacks-Octopus-Paul.html ... Kidding )

f u all. He's an octopus who died. Are you going grab every creature that dies in the ocean and put them in an urn on display too?

Its stupid that the whole area is making such a big deal out of it.

Its one thing if he was a pet and that owner did this, but for this to be travesty and put on display etc, is what's stupid.
