    Hello Jordan. Happy Saturday! Thank you for this. It was so much fun. They really enjoy and embrace their town's celebrity. It was good to see Phil, himself. Had a great time. Have a wonderful day my friend! Blessings - Judith 🎵🎭

    Where I lived in PA, on the Eastern side…ground hogs were all over digging holes under woodsheds and decks everywhere. One day I was all alone at my house doing some cleaning and I heard a tap on my patio door…it was in the back of my house which was secluded with woods even beyond that, so the knock kinda scared me. So I peeked around the corner so not to be seen but could see…a little groundhog standing on his hind legs like he was the Fuller Brush salesman. He tapped a couple of times. This was before cell phones so I have no picture proof of this event occurring as well as nobody believed me when I told them that it had happened either!
    😂😂 Only me and my little shadow know…! 😊

    I have seen almost every tube made about Phil and his day. This is by FAR the best, most real, nicest, one made. Dam well done. My wife and I go every year we can. In the summer there is a 4-day music festival in the town. It is not sponsored by the Groundhog club but still a ton of fun. It is actually a 4- or 5-day event. There is a Ball like in the movie, a talent show, movie is shown on at least one day all day long, there is a party in Barclay Square in the middle of town where there is food, music, drinks,(beer and wine),snacks, crafts, stuff like that. You will meet members of the Inner Circle(top hat guys) There is a members reception with drinks and food, we are members too. This celebration is the most legal fun humans can have.

      Karenlee, now you must go to Punxsutawney on 2 Feb. Wife, and I go every chance we can. It is the most legal fun humans can experience. And it is actually a 4/5-day event. There is so much to do, dance like in the movie held 2 days before Phil does his thing. They through a talent show into the mix. Outdoor party with music drinks and food in Barclay Square downtown. You can join the Club and attend the members only reception with Phil. And on at least one day they show the movie all day long. Best part is all the so darn nice people you can ever meet. People come from all over the globe. We met folks from Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Ireland, from every state except Hawaii. Drawback: there is basically no place to stay in Punxy so you got to book at least 25 min outside of town in Dubois, Brookville, Indiana, PA. Mid-week minimum 22 thousand attend. Weekend 30 thousand plus. Get serious warm clothes SERIOUS Warm. Not Wal-Mart but L.L. Bean stuff. That quality. And places to eat are not expensive at all. Unless you purchase a parking pass or are part of the official party you have to take shuttle b us up to the Knob a 1 and a half mile distance away from town. Deb my wife and I are going nest year if we are alive. Book your room today! You GOT TO GO!

    I see what you mean about it not quite making sense that seeing his shadow leads to more winter, as you would think he would see his shadow when the sun is shining! Fun vlog, I hope you get to go there on the day sometime too.

    Good Job Jordan! So that's Punxsutawaney. Bigger than Woodstock. Still remember to this day, the filming of the movie. Got Bill's autograph. Still have a piece of the fake snow they used... Big crowds were there when they filmed it. Bill got annoyed at the noise they were making Bill said; "Okay! We have a job to do, and you DON'T! So, please be quiet"! That was the scene when he steps in the puddle.

    • @DazewithJordantheLion
      @DazewithJordantheLion  2 года назад +1

      Haha, great story.. I can imagine how much the actors must be concentrating on good takes and how it would be annoying for the outside noise to get in the way.. plus, it kinda seems like something "movie phil" would say, so he was in character.. I know Patrick swayze said he had a similar experience on Ghost when he was filming a scene where he is dead and is trying to beat up and touch his killer, but he can't yet.. he said the extras were laughing when he was doing it, and he said "you think this is f-cking easy? I'm trying to convey something here!" Next take they were dead silent, and applauded after he nailed the take.

I helped Weather channels Jim Cantore over that split rail fence via a bear hug , 😂. You need to come some year and spend the day.

    Thanks, Jordan. Great fun! GROUNDHOG DAY is one of my all-time favorite movies. Any list of 100 best films that does not include it is a waste of time...and I'll say that over and over and over and over again.
    "Well, what if there is no tomorrow? There wasn't one today."
    BTW, I just finished viewing the series you did in 2018 on Seville, Spain. Wonderful and highly recommended to one and all...starting with "We Take 3 Flights To PARADISE! SEVILLE SPAIN
    " posted on September 15, 2018

  • @robertwernerog399
    @robertwernerog399 2 года назад +1

    Jordan - the reason behind the six weeks of winter is that when "Phil" sees his shadow it's supposed to scare him and he goes back into his burrow for six more weeks.
