Punxsutawney Phil Groundhogs Day

WATCH: The legendary Punxsutawney Phil predicts an early Spring after not seeing his shadow, internet goes crazy

For more than a century, people from all over the world (not really) gather on February 2nd in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania to witness greatness. Punxsutawney Phil delivers nothing but facts on whether we will have an extended Winter or an early Spring.

GLAD TIDINGS ON GROUNDHOGS DAY – AN EARLY SPRING IS ON THE WAY

Nothing gets me going more than Punxsutawney Phil not seeing his shadow and basically guaranteeing an early Spring for the United States of America. There’s nothing better. 

Tradition holds that if Phil sees his shadow, winter will continue for six more weeks, and if he does not see his shadow, there will be an early spring.

On Year 128 yesterday, Punxsutawney Phil didn’t see his shadow and just like that, we’re on our way to an early Spring. 

Imagine being a meteorologist and having a groundhog absolutely dominating the industry. Phil must be the the most hated personality in the weather game, right? 

You can also miss me with the other nonsense “Oracle Animals” that have been trying to get some of that sweet, sweet, Punxsutawney fame. 

All across the country, weather-predicting animals go all-in trying to snatch the thrown from Punxy and continue to fall short. 

“Fellow groundhogs Staten Island Chuck, Washington D.C.’s Potomac Phil and Georgia’s General Beauregard “Beau” Lee agreed with Punxsutawney Phil and did not see their shadow Friday morning.” [Forbes]

These fraudulent groundhogs simply look at what Phil do and act accordingly. Staten Island Chuck? Potomac Phil? Georgia’s General Beauregard “Beau” Lee? 

Don’t think so. There’s one groundhog that runs the show on Planet Earth. If anyone wants to fall out of line, they’ll likely end up dead like Canadian Groundhog Fred la Marmotte, who was “shockingly” found dead ahead of his prediction in Quebec last year. 

You’d have to be a fool to think that’s just a tragic event or a mere coincidence. Punxsutawney Phil is everywhere. 

Hate all you want, but Punxsutawney Phil stands on business.

When’s the last time you saw social media creating an edit like this for your local weather person or whatever animal you run out there on Groundhog Day? 

Yeah, didn’t think so. 

Punxsutawney Phil edit will have you running through brick walls

Don’t even get me started on the other animals…

“Other cities use non-groundhogs to predict the winter weather, like in New Orleans, where Leia the aardvark uses termite mounds to make the city’s prediction, or Nantucket, Massachusetts, where Quentin the quahog squirts in one direction or another to indicate whether spring is coming.” [Forbes]

PETA ruins everything (again)

Phil gets one day a year to shine and of course, the folks over at PETA want to make it all about them and whatever sick and twisted world they think they live in. Yesterday, PETA suggested that instead of having Phil go out there and deliver the news, that humans should dress up in a groundhog costume to deliver the weather? 

WGH_FM Radio in Marion, Ohio actually does this and honestly, should be investigated for something criminal. These freaks belong at a Furry Convention and leave the weather business to Phil and the rest of the Oracle Animals who are just trying to enjoy their moment to shine. 

Cheers to you, Punxsutawney Phil. Absolute legend.

unfiltered, opinionated, and certainly do not care if you like it or not.
