Its snowy February 2nd for most of us and spring is probably the last thing you can think of right. However today is Groundhog Day, the day the groundhog comes out of its hole and looks for its shadow to determine if spring will come early or not. In 2010 Pennsylvania was the first US state to partner with Foursquare by adding over 200 check-in attractions and creating 3 custom badges on the location based social network. Being an avid Foursquare user, the challenge of getting the next shiny new badge is irresistible. So to satisfy our hunger and to celebrate the Prognosticator of Prognosticators Punxutawney Phil's "coming out" day. The state of Pennsylvania has unveiled its next badge, the "PA Groundhog Day" badge.
Today (February 2nd, 2011) is the only day you can unlock this badge. Here are the two simple steps need to do to unlock the badge.
First, follow visitPA on Foursquare at Foursquare.com/visitPA
Second, check-in anywhere in the world and shout "groundhog" between 12:am and 11:59pm on February 2nd, 2011.
Oh and in case you needed to know, Punxutawney Phil didn't see his shadow this morning so an early spring for all!
