NOT PULPO PAUL!!!!!
Pulpo Paul, the Nostradamus of octopuses who slithered into all of our hearts by correctly predicting the winner of 8 out of 8 World Cup matches, has closed his tiny eyes and lifted one of his soothsaying tentacles for the last time. The Sea Life Center in Oberhausen, Germany announced today that Paul the SLYCIC Octopus has passed away at the age of 2 and a half. Raise your Vuvuzela and let's all blow out "Candle in the Wind" for Pulpo Paul.
The manager of The Sea Life Center said Pulpo Paul died of natural causes and they will erect a monument as a tribute to him. The manager went on to say these kind words, "We are consoled by the knowledge that he enjoyed a good life here. We had all naturally grown fond of him and he will be sorely missed. We may decide to give Paul his own small burial plot within our grounds and erect a modest permanent shrine. While this may seem a curious thing to do for a sea creature, Paul achieved such popularity during his short life that it may be deemed the most appropriate course of action."
They say he died naturally, but I refuse to believe this! Paul would've seen this coming (GONG me eight times, suction a plunger to my head and drag me off stage)! Did anybody see a shifty, yet sexy, Dutch spy fish swimming around Paul's tank? THAT BITCH DID IT! What about Walter Mercado or Miss Cleo? Did anybody see them lurking about the aquarium? They all have motives! Or maybe Paul just couldn't take the pressure of being our new world overlord, so he staged his death and is now leisurely lying on the sand of an aquarium in the Caribbean. That has to be it since Paul is immortal.
Rest in peace, Paul (We'll play along, even though we all know you're living the life in the Bahamas).....


Noooooooooooooooooooooo.
Something tells me Paul ended up diced in a frying pan along with some olive oil and garlic.

Shiitake happens...
Paul?
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy??
he was too young too die and he probably could have fitted in another world cup.
"NOSOPD -Not our sort of person darling"
Now can we turn him into calamari?
They should have sold him when they had the chance to get a million bucks for him.

Pulpo Paul will be sorely missed. I blame Walter Mercado - bitch couldn't stand Pulpo Paul's fabulosity.
This is wrong. Illuminati shit. Someone got to little pulpo paul.
RIP our eight-legged friend.

poor thing. they worked him to death. sad.

I wonder if they'll have an open casket walk by, with a book of condolences everyone can sign in Oberhausen?
Awwwwwwwww :( Never mind ENJOY!
Ingredients:
* Octopus: 2 gallons of water
* 4 lemons, cut in half and squeezed
* 2 cups white wine vinegar
* ½ cup kosher salt
* 6 bay leaves
* 2 whole octopi, 2 pounds each (cleaned by your fish monger)
* Marinade: 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
* 2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
* 2 ounces white wine vinegar
* 1 teaspoon dry Greek oregano
* Juice of 2 lemons, freshly squeezed
* Salad: 1 red pepper, grilled or broiled, seeded and diced
* 1 yellow pepper, grilled or broiled, seeded and diced
* ¾ cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
* 2 ounces extra virgin olive oil
* 1 teaspoon dry Greek oregano
* Juice of 1 lemon, freshly squeezed
* Salt
* Pepper
Method:
For octopus:
Combine all the ingredients in a large pot, except the octopus. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Holding the head of the octopus with tongs, dunk it into boiling water 3 times, leaving the octopus submerged for 3-5 seconds each time. This is called ‘scaring’ the octopus (the tentacles will curl up as you plunge the octopus in the boiling water). Repeat with remaining octopus.
Place both octopi in the pot and cook 20 minutes, or until tender. Remove them from the liquid and cool on a tray.
For marinade:
Combine all ingredients in a bowl or dish fitted with a cover. Cut the blanched octopus in half and place it in the marinade. Turn to coat, cover and refrigerate overnight.
For salad:
Combine all ingredients in a non-reactive bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
To serve:
Grill octopus on a standard gas grill over medium heat, or broil on a rack in the middle of the oven, for 4-5 minutes per side. Cut octopus into medium-sized pieces. Place a small amount of salad in center of plate. Set 3-4 pieces of octopus on top. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and garnish with caper berries and pea shoots.

All species of octopus have short lifespans, ranging from 1-2 years, not just in captivity, but in the wild (in the wild their lifespan would be shorter due to predation risk).

I smell a conspiracy. They just didn't need him any more after the world cup. Where's Detective LaToya when we need her?
RIP, Paul. I mean that more than many of the recent RIPs I've said in the name of deceased celebrities lately, too.

2 1/2 is a good run for an octopus in captivity. But still...kinda seems like a short life for a prophet.

I'll be at Animal Planet - sigh. But yes, I think Octopi live much longer than 2 years. He quit Germany's bitch ass. He's not from there. Poor thing. How much money did they pay for him? I wonder if there was a premature death clause in the insurance policy.

I find any Vuvuzela reference hilarious for some reason. Especially when it comes from MK.
I just can't believe this is making headlines, it's not like this happened during or right after the World Cup.
That was my first thought, too, Octopi. If you're gonna go with with 'es', it should be more like 'Octopusses'. Just seems like it would need another s.

Don't they usually live longer than that? I think this requires an investigation.
