Mani, The Parakeet

Posted on 07.09.10 to Photography, Work by Joan

As usual, I had an interesting time covering this for a feature story for AP. I am a self-professed football non-fan and have not been able to understand the madness that surrounds it. Especially during World Cup season.

I’ve been hearing about this octopus, Paul, that predicted some results accurately. Now, we have Mani, the parakeet, from Singapore. Click here to read the news story. (He predicted a Holland win, by the way. Paul picked Spain. Let’s see which one gets cooked by angry fans.)

Paul is already getting lotsa death threats. There’re many ways to eat him – grilled, fried, stir fry, etc. I wonder if he lives til final to see if he predicted correctly (this Sunday I think…not a football fan myself too)

Parakeet doesn’t seem appetising though. =D
