"This is one time where television really fails to capture the true excitement of a large squirrel predicting the weather."
It's been one year since my exciting trip to Punxsutawney, PA for my VIP experience with my friends Josh and Adrienne Gruver. We were lucky enough to get a connection with the president of the Groundhog Club that got us front row seats at Gobbler's Knob and a pass to hang with the top-hatted groundhog crew.
We partied all night, slept for two hours and were up at 3am to stand outside with other maniacs, dance around and watch the fireworks display before the prognostication. It was a great time -- so glad I got the chance to experience it -- and now that I've gone first class, I've done it all.
