I have now watched Groundhog Day 362 times!!! I can't wait for Friday to come. It's going to be so special finally managing to complete this epic quest.
Today I watched Groundhog Day for the 363rd time in a row! To celebrate, I'd like to share with you my favorite deleted scene from the film, one I sorely wish had been kept in. Watch it below, and read that poem that will gut punch your soul.
Every night by cold bricks' glow
I watch the shadow rising from this old man in the snow
At 8:02 we let it go
At 8:02 we let it go

On February 2, 2024 I rolled into the Tomorrow Theater in Portland, OR and watched Groundhog Day for the 365th day in a row!
When I started this back in 2023 for the movie's 30th anniversary, I couldn't have imagined something not stopping the streak. But I made it here, and along the way ran a podcast, became an expect on time loop media, presented on the topic at conventions, and made so many friends to talk about this silly little adventure with.
In 2023, just like in the film, Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter just like in the movie. This year, he predicted an early spring. It's taken an entire year to reach this grand accomplishment, but now it's time to move onto something new.
Thank you to everyone who has commented on my daily posts and encouraged me all this time. I can't wait to see what bonkers challenge I try to tackle next!
