31. A guy was walking down the street on Groundhog Day and saw a groundhog looking very distressed. He asked what was wrong. The groundhog replied, “I just saw my shadow and now I have to predict 6 more weeks of winter! I’m a fraud! I have no meteorological skills whatsoever!” The man patted him on the back and said, “Don’t be so hard on yourself. Weather prediction is extremely difficult and unreliable. You’re putting way too much pressure on your small furry shoulders.” The groundhog sighed and said, “You’re right, I just need to relax. This one day doesn’t define me!” They shared a smile and parted ways, both feeling a little better about themselves.
32. A town was growing frustrated with their local groundhog who had incorrectly predicted an early spring for 3 years running. They decided to replace him with a new groundhog named Phil who promised more accurate forecasts. On his first Groundhog Day, Phil emerged, saw his shadow, and declared “6 more weeks of winter!” The mayor immediately dragged Phil back into his hole, saying “Nice try buddy, but you’re predicting an early spring like everyone else around here.”
33. Jerry was excited for his first Groundhog Day as the official forecaster for his town. He emerged carefully from his burrow, checked for his shadow, and declared “An early spring!” The crowd cheered. Proud of his meteorology skills, Jerry decided to start telling people’s fortunes as well. He pointed to a woman and said “You will come into prosperity soon.” Then he pointed to a man and said “You will meet your true love this year!” Jerry was suddenly hit in the head with a tomato as the crowd booed. Maybe he should stick to weather next year.
34. Pablo was a fun-loving groundhog who loved surprising people on Groundhog Day. One year he emerged from his hole wearing sunglasses and announced “2 more decades of winter, dudes!” The next year he had a bucket of confetti which he threw at the crowd, laughing joyfully. The mayor had to clarify afterwards that Pablo was just kidding and it would still be either 6 more weeks of winter or an early spring per usual. Pablo didn’t care, he just thought the confusion was hilarious.
35. Sam was a cynical groundhog who thought Groundhog Day was a scam. After reluctantly leaving his burrow one year, he saw a shadow and declared “Haha, 6 more weeks of your gullibility, folks!” Needless to say, the mayor quickly retired Sam and replaced him with a groundhog who had a little more respect for tradition.
36. Carlos was a fun-loving groundhog who loved messing with the town on Groundhog Day. One year he emerged wearing a blindfold and feeling around until he said “Aha, I certifiably feel no shadow! Early spring it is!” The next year Carlos declared in a robotic voice: “My sensors calculate a 74.62% chance of an early spring occurrence.” He cracked up after each performance while the mayor just shook his head in disappointment.
37. Larry was a theatrical groundhog with a flair for the dramatic. On Groundhog Day instead of simply announcing his prediction, Larry would put on elaborate shows. One year he emerged in a Shakespearean costume and soliloquized about the endless winter’s cruelty. Another year he sang opera loudly until a confused aide finally shouted out his forecast. The crowd thought Larry was hilarious but the mayor was torn since technically Larry was just doing his job.
38. Dan was a laidback groundhog who often forgot Groundhog Day was coming up. Usually on Feb 1st he’d say “Oh man, the big day’s tomorrow huh?” Then he’d stay up late cramming meteorology facts before his prediction. One year Dan snoozed through 2/2 entirely. For the only time ever, the mayor declared an extra 6 weeks of winter hoping it would teach Dan a lesson about responsibility.

The mayor eventually asked Chip to tone it down a little for the sake of time.

42. Mikey was a rebellious teenage groundhog who thought Groundhog Day was so lame. On Feb 2nd he’d just mutter “6 weeks whatever” before going right back to listening to punk music in his hole. He dreamed of moving to the big city where groundhogs had cooler jobs as drummers or skateboarders. The mayor had a feeling Mikey wouldn’t be their town’s forecaster for very long.
43. Dave was a simple groundhog who just adored Groundhog Day because of all the free food.

One year he was so stuffed that when he came out to check for his shadow, he ended up just burping loudly instead of saying a forecast.

The crowd ate it up but the male groundhogs thought Fabio was just a little too full of himself.
