re: #769 Honorary Yooper
This is pitiful. A thousand people freezing their butts off waiting to worship a rat. What a hype. Well, it used to mean something in this town. They used to pull the hog out, and they used to eat it. You’re hypocrites, all of you! You have a problem with what I’m saying, Larry?
I went to school at Indiana University of PA which has a branch in Punxsatawny where the aforementioned rat lives. Today is a holliday out in Western PA, or at least it was in the ‘80’s, much drinking and celebrating, we even made the pilgrimage one year, 5 of us in a ‘78 Malibu Classic with a trunk full of beer.
/ahhh, good times
