MSNBC host Joe Scarborough and his Morning Joe crew have been less-than-solemn of their remembrance of Forecasting Groundhog and alleged Bill de Blasio dropping victim Staten Island Charlotte, New York’s in poor health-fated counterpart of Punxsutawney Phil.

It has been virtually ten years on account that Charlotte met her death — part of a rotation of groundhogs underneath the Staten Island Chuck brand title — after performing her accountability one last time, but the woodland has no longer forgotten, and neither have the co-hosts and panel of pundits and paid contributors on Thursday morning’s edition of MSNBC’s Morning Joe.

While breaking the news that Punxsutawney Phil has anticipated another six weeks of iciness, the gang tripped down memory lane to prior Groundhog Day tragedies like that time then-Mayor Mike Bloomberg was once bitten with the aid of a Chuck and negative Charlotte. They replayed her soar from freakishly tall de Blasio’s comically large falconer’s-gloved fingers, after which she passed away following a weeklong interval.

As they replayed that day’s horrors over and over, Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, and the others cracked wise and equipped play-by-play for a couple of stable minutes:

JOE SCARBOROUGH: Frazier is down! Frazier is down!

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: He killed it!

UNIDENTIFIED: Did he kill…

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: He killed it. It died!

ELISE JORDAN: I will be able to’t consider, although, with all of the improbable veterinary tools and hospitals in New York City, they couldn’t retailer this groundhog.

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: When the mayor of the Big Apple slams the groundhog down on the bottom…

Curiously, one of those panelists was Jonathan Lemire, who as a younger cub reporter in 2014 filed this file for the Associated Press, by which CSI: Groundhog seems to have cleared de Blasio in Charlotte’s demise:

(Zoo spokesman Brian) Morris said the animal was given an intensive clinical examination in the hours after the incident, and the take a look at-up “printed no evidence of trauma or ache.” The groundhog then participated in a couple of situations over the following week and not using a obvious unwell results from the fall.

But on the morning of Feb. 9, the animal used to be found dead in its exhibit. A necropsy carried out by way of the zoo veterinarian indicated that the animal died of inner accidents.

“We don’t know how the animal suffered the injuries but we don’t think it was from the autumn,” Morris stated. “We believe it took place someday the evening prior to she used to be discovered dead.”

But Lemire spoke no longer a phrase of this nine years later.
