Video: Will Staten Island Chuck Attack Again?

This Tuesday Staten Island Chuck will perform his annual duty of predicting more winter or an early spring—no matter how much the PETA troupe lobbies for his robot replacement. The question is: who will be his next victim? Last year he took a bite out of Bloomie, and the Staten Island Advance has video footage of Chuck plotting his next move. Since the Mayor will face his fears and attend the event again, there could be a rematch.

And remember: if he sees his shadow, we'll be getting six more weeks of winter, so let's hope it's overcast.

I'm going to let everyone in on a secret. PETA is an absurdist comedy troupe. It's not about the animals, it's about provoking a reaction from people. They feed off of eye rolling and groans.

Wow,thanks to peta for injecting their idiotic logic once again. Here we have the world best treated ground hog and they want to throw him to the coyotes and speeding motorist. Way to keep killing those animals you claim to protect. Good luck chuck.
