We gather by the thousands to welcome a 135-year-old groundhog out of his hole. SHARE ON:
Punxsutawney Phil is, without a doubt, the most famous groundhog around. This 135-year-old woodland critter is responsible for telling the world whether or not we will endure six more weeks of winter or if we are in for an early spring.
Phil crawls out of his hole, every February 2nd, and onto quite an elaborate stage to greet thousands of loving fans with his predictions about the season to come. If he sees his shadow, that essentially means we shouldn’t put our mittens away quite yet winter is sticking around a bit longer. If he doesn’t see his shadow, spring is well on its way!
