Famed rodent and annual Pennsylvanian oracle, Punxsutawney Phil, is in hot water.
Look at his lying face...
Mike Gmoser decided to indict Phil for purposely misleading the people of Ohio into thinking spring was coming early. Many parts of Ohio are expected to see 4-8 inches of snow on Sunday from Winter Storm Virgil.
“Punxsutawney Phil did purposely, and with prior calculation and design, cause the people to believe that spring would come early,” Mike Gmoser, the prosecutor in southwestern Ohio’s Butler County, wrote in an official-looking indictment.
The president of the Punxsutawney club that organizes the Groundhog day festivities, Bill Deeley said that Phil has a lawyer and will fight the charges. “We’ll have to plead our case one way or the other, but I think we can beat the rap,” Deeley said.
Gmoser has stated that he is seeking the death penalty in the case.
Silly? Yes, but awesome.
