Paul also tipped Spain to beat Netherlands in the final. "We have had a lot of offers for Paul but he will definitely be staying with us and returning to his usual job-making children smile," Sea Life spokeswoman Tanja Munzig in Oberhausen said after presenting Paul with the World Cup replica. There's no rational (合理的) reasons why Paul always got it right. Bettors around the world made small fortunes based on Paul's guess, said Graham Sharpe, media relations director at William Hill in London.

We had people coming in saying they didn't know how to place a bet but heard about this German octopus and wanted to bet with him. It's funny. But he kept getting it right." said Sharpe.
