A member of the Groundhog Club read the scroll picked by Punxsutawney Phil at sunrise,

“In groundhogese, he directed the president of the inner circle to his prognostication scroll, which reads:

Up early this morning,

Far from home,

Are you searching for,

the Philosopher’s Stone?

But even my best friends,

they don’t know,

is it an early spring,

or just more snow?

My faithful followers,

you’re hands and my paws are getting cold,

so here’s my forecast,

not lead, but solid gold.

I see my royal shadow,

six more weeks of winter to go.”

Thousands of fans had shown up to see Punxsutawney Phil give his prediction. The town of Punxsutawney was blocked off for the large crowd.

Buses were used to transport viewers from the Wal-Mart in Punxsutawney to Gobbler’s Knob to shop, dance and view fireworks before Punxsutawney Phil was taken from his home by his handler, Al Dereume.
