Hoodie-Hoo day again

Bay City, MI(Zone 6a)

When : February 20

On this winter day, people go out at noon, wave their hands over their heads and chant "Hoodie-Hoo".

It is a day to chase away winter and bring in spring. After all, everyone in the northern hemisphere are sick and tired of winter at this point and a little crazy being cooped up inside all winter and not seeing the sun.

LETS ALL YELL~~~~~~~~

There needs to be some screaming down here in the south for ya'll....you deserve it!!!!
On my way to the garden I will be screaming all the way, "Hooooooodie Hoo!!!!!!

i will yell it out but i cannot complain about this winter at all. we have had only one storm and that wasn't bad at all. the temps did get low but the lowest was 6 degrees. today it was close to forty five and the next few days will be in the low 40's.

Off topic but reminded me of a game my dad used to insist we play as kids when we were bored. It was called "Toodle Loo!" We took empty toilet paper or paper towel rolls and yelled 'Toodle Loo!' into them. This was his idea of funny. The tradition is being carried on.
