One of these years, I'm going to attend one of those. I only live about an hour and a half from there and it looks to be quite the party.

Phil's cool but I'm a big fan of Phil's generic-brand New York bred knockoff, Staten Island Chuck, as well. He bit NYC Mayor Bloomberg during the Groundhog Day ceremony a couple of years back, which automatically made him a legend.

I wouldn't mind taking a road trip out to western PA, but I doubt it will ever happen. I think the kids would dig it. And me too.

I remember that! I laughed my ass off. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. I'm surprised Bloomberg didn't immediately call for a city-wide tax on "ground chuck" to cover the health costs of people bitten by groundhogs.
