Octopus Predicts Favre will RetireI suppose this is as good a way as any to figure out what the Hamlet of Hattiesburg will do. And an excellent way for the Aquarium to get a little bit of publicity.
Loki the Octopus predicts Brett Favre will retire.The octopus made its prediction late Thursday morning by choosing between two types of food in its aquarium at Underwater Adventures at the Mall of America.
Two things interest me about this, first I've tried to see this octopus in the past. They had Loki on display for a couple of months but she (I think it's a she) would always hide. And it was impressive how well an octopus of her size could hide. Eventually they swapped out her exhibit with something that could be seen.
And the secondly, does anyone else think it's funny to trust predictions from something named Loki? He is probably the best known of the 'trickster' type of gods. It would be like getting tips on humility from a lobster named 'Tyra Banks'.
