Not really in Punxutawney

Rating: Null/10 (16 December 2006)

This should have been put in the goofs arena. I tried to find a place to enter this in the goofs section, but could not find it. When the news crew are standing around Groundhog Phil's rising station at Gobbler's Knob, you can see 4 or 5-story buildings behind Phil Connors, and once again behind Rita. I just went to visit Gobbler's Knob. There are no buildings of any significant size at the site -- just one park ranger station. It's mainly woods there. I would have thought that, while filmed in Illinois, the production crew would have at least taken a stroll through Gobbler's Knob in Pennsylvania before they started filming. They could have simply found some woodsy area in Illinois to film the groundhog shots. I took photos of the actual site that show all of this. Too bad I can't submit them for the readers to see. It's actually a very serene place there.
