How to use groundhog in a sentence?

1. Lawrence Barretto:

   The Italian manufacturer season's groundhog day in a way, this happened last year when it was looking pretty good for Ferrari and then they had that problem in the Asian swing of The Italian manufacturer season with the first-lap crash in Singapore and the problems in Japan.

2. Mayor Paul Esser:

   It's Groundhog Day; I get it, i think we could make a change into something that is more appropriate.

3. James Ramsey:

   I am a little long in the tooth to be dressed up like some forest elf crawling around stalking 'hogs but it is just as fun as I remembered it,' i have a good time and the farmers get rid of a pest. As you look at the soybean fields, you'll see what we call 'ice cream cones.' The point of the ice cream cone is where the groundhog's burrow is. He'll eat in a semicircle out from his burrow. Groundhogs love eating fresh soybeans coming out of the ground.

4. John Griffin:

   Only half the groundhogs from any litter survive, and they disperse. They find other territories and they're on the move and they're a prey animal so it's rough out there for them. A lot of times, we get calls not because there's an actual conflict but because when someone sees a groundhog, they're like 'Oh, I've got a problem.'.

5. John Cornyn:

   I guess we’d better recharge our batteries. It’s like Groundhog Day. Over and over and over again, it’s maddening.
