Punxsutawney Phil called it wrong, and now the humans are angry.

With the forecast of yet another winter storm on the way for the East Coast (called Virgil), the calls for the fat brown creature to be literally axed have grown serious.

Butler County Prosecutor Mike Gmoser was apparently so enraged by this year’s lengthy winter that he issued an indictment against Punxsutawney Phil, the famous groundhog who just a few months ago dared to predict an early spring.

The tongue-in cheek indictment, which was posted online by the Washington Post, said Phil “purposely, and with prior calculation and design, caused the people to believe that Spring would come early.” The crimes at issue, he said, were “MISREPRESENTATION OF EARLY SPRING, an Unclassified Felony, and against the peace and dignity of the State of Ohio.”

Those Ohioans sure are angry. Maybe it’s because their 2nd-seeded Ohio State barely managed to win over 10-seed Iowa State, 78-75.
