LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – FEBRUARY 02: A movie screen at Snappy Burger drive-thru hamburger stand and drive-in movie theater displays images of cast members Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell before showing the movie “Groundhog Day” during a Groundhog Day celebration on February 2, 2021 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Groundhog Day is an annual tradition in the United States and Canada of using a groundhog emerging from its den to determine whether there will be six more weeks of winter weather. If the groundhog sees its shadow due to clear skies, it will return to its burrow, and winter will last six more weeks. If clouds prevent it from seeing its shadow, it will stay above ground, and spring will arrive early. (Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)
Okay, campers, rise and shine! And don't forget your booties! Because it's COOOLD out there...it's Groundhog Day!
Not only is it properly February 2nd (and word is that Punxsutawney Phil has predicted six more weeks of winter this year)...but it's also the 30th Anniversary of the classic Bill Murray movie!
Released in 1993, Groundhog Day is a movie which Bill himself considers one of his best...and he has said it was one the greatest scripts he's ever received.
So watch (in clip form) the movie below! And happy Groundhog Day!
