It is also a legend that has survived centuries, its origins clouded in the mists of time with ancient cultures and animals awakening on specific dates. Myths like Ground Hogs Day tie our present to the past when nature influences our lives. It is the day that the Groundhog comes out of his hole after a long winter sleep to look for his shadow. If he sees it, he regards it as an omen of six more weeks of bad weather and returns to his hole. To our American forefathers, the ground hog was thought of as a most intelligent and sensible animal and therefore the people of Punxsutawney decided that if the sun did appear on February 2nd, so wise an animal as the groundhog would see its shadow and hurry back into its underground home for another six weeks of winter. Punxsutawney Phil (the ground hog who tells the weather) first made his appearance in 1886. During Prohibition Phil threatened to impose 60 weeks of winter on the community if he wasn't allowed a drink. Phil traveled to Washington DC in 1986 to meet with President Reagan. Phil appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show in 1995. Punxsutawney Phil also starred in the Hollywood feature “Ground Hogs Day” opposite Bill Murray. Ground Hog’s Day party supplies like paper plates, napkins, and cups are a nice way to complete a Ground Hog’s Day Party Theme.
