Crazy People Jump Into The Atlantic In The Middle Of February To Show Punxsutawney Phil Who's The Boss [Winter Is The New Tony Danza]

This Saturday, I had the distinct pleasure of witnessing 100s of crazy people in costumes run into the Atlantic Ocean. In Massachusetts. In mid-February. I think it had something to do with showing up that stupid groundhog and raising money for charity. But mostly I think it was about dressing in costumes and being crazy. Two things I approve of way more than rodents and charities.

I wrote up the event for Bostonist, and since I'm nothing if not a lazy blogger, I'm going to make you click through to their site to read the full article. Though I can promise there is at least one Bill Murray reference. And nothing beats a Bill Murray reference. Not even a video of Bill Murray beating himself with a stick. Though that would come pretty close.

Since my DivMo audience ain't so hot for reading words, here are some of my favorite pictures from the event.
