That’s pretty good for a quadruped.

Since there are 46 days remaining officially, this is good news delivered by a brainless rat that simply wants to be left alone. This is one of the oddest customs in the country.

So groundhogs are regional prognosticators.

I know. But it’s kind of fun. It’s Sunday morning, I was lonely and it was nice to chat with you all before the Super Bowl and Puppy Bowl.

I hope everyone has a great day, regardless whether we have an early or late Spring.

I live 30 miles away. THAT’S the reason I have never - and WILL NEVER - go there on February 2nd.

I can’t imagine being in the midst of all that madness, either.

This is pitiful. A thousand people freezing their butts off waiting to worship a rat. What a hype. Groundhog Day used to mean something in this town. They used to pull the hog out, and they used to eat it. You’re hypocrites, all of you!

Why?

It should be ‘pretty funny’ not ‘sad’.

Obviously Phil needs to regroup, consider the consequences, then go back outside and try again.

Was that his shadow he saw, or a DHS agent?

I expected Phil would have predicted: “... if you like your weather you can keep it.”

Breakfast food after sunrise, but booze at that hour?

Of course, 82,000 fans will soon fill Super Bowl stadium & make the morning groundhog crowd look like a Mensa gathering.
