Alright I have had enough. Year after year we have to watch some unsuspecting doped up gopher predict the next several weeks of winter. Really? Aren't we to the point where Doppler radar can suffice? Do we really put any real stock in this ridiculous shannanigan? This hoax? I mean really, a gopher predicting the weather? Well let me just say, I have had enough and I'm not gonna take it anymore! Groundhog Day and all those top hat wearing pompous groundhog holding goofs can take their groundhog and stuff him back in the hole for good! (My apologies to PETA).
 
I like the idea of Al Gore Day instead...

"Today Gore emerged from his 10,000 sq, ocean side, California, mansion to go to the airport to board his private jet to have lunch with friends at his Tennessee mansion...

Upon leaving the house, Gore saw his caravan of SUV's but wasn't afraid, instead getting in and heading to the airport..."

There you go everyone...Al Gore has spoken and predicted 12 more moths of Global Warming! :)
 
Pretty sure groundhogs hibernate so no apology to PETA needed...I'd think they'd have a problem with them taking a groundhog from its natural state.

I wonder if ground hogs never bite anyone at these things is because they're too tired. They're fiesty.

Correct me if I'm wrong Sandy, but if I kill all the golfers they'll lock me up and throw away the key.

Not golfers, you great git! Gophers, the little brown, furry rodents!

We can do that. We don't even need a reason.

Ayye! Well do it, man!

OK, but why don't we do the same thing, but with gophers?
 
Without this holiday we would not of had the cinematic gem that is Groundhog Day starring the incomparable Bill Murray. Let people have their fun.

Next is the War on Groundhogs Day and the debate of if it's better to say 'Happy Groundhog's Day' or 'Happy February 2nd'.

Bill Murray thread? Ok then.

With your personality, I could see you taking Red Pandas unicycle.
 
The groundhog has only been 39% accurate so you can pretty much just assume the opposite if he sees his shadow most years.

Groundhogs are a pain the the butt, they burrow in places you don't want them. My parents have had to deal with several of them burrowing in their farm buildings over the years and they are hard to get rid of once they dig in. Wish this show was still on the air as there were multiple episodes where he had to trap a groundhog and they are not friendly rodents
