We have a pep assembly at school and all of the foreign exchange students from a bunch of different school districts in western PA get hosted by kids from my high school for a few days so that they can go. It's really rather silly, but it caught on and it's the only thing that the town has going for it. It used to be a big party where everyone got wasted, but they've pretty much eliminated the ability to take alcohol up there because you have to take a shuttle bus from downtown to the area rather than drive there like you could a few years ago. They pretty much ruined all the fun when they did that like 8 years ago.

+1, which is why I don't go. I was going to take friends in college, but then they started cracking down on all the fun stuff, so I never bothered. It just wasn't worth a 4 hour drive to stand out in the cold and see him come out.

I'd like to make an animated film about him where he's this depressed washed-up alcoholic groundhog who's tired of the fame, money, and spotlight and just wants to live a normal life. Or maybe he'll have a gambling problem, I dunno lol... I'm babbling as usual.

How did you end up misspelling Punxsutawney when it was spelled correctly on the initial post of the thread?

LMAO

And I thought that is the groundhog saw his shadow (hence the sun being out) that spring was coming sooner? I dunno. LOL
