Mini Takes the States 2014 Road Rally Buffalo to Bethlehem Leg:

Gobblers Knob... well, I guess that is better than naming it Knob Gobblers. We stopped to see the famous ceremonial pulpit of Punxsutawney Phil, the mythical groundhog in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.

We have all seen Bill Murray in Groundhog Day but the ceremony of Phil's prognostication does not actually take place in town like the movie suggests but two miles east of town at the unusually named Gobblers Knob. The Movie was actually not even filmed in Punxsutawney but in Woodstock, Illinois.

The Groundhog Day celebration has its in Celtic tradition. If a hibernating animal casts a shadow on February 2, the Pagan holiday of Imbolc, winter will last another six weeks... no shadow early spring.
