Louisville business has "Groundhog Day" every day

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A Louisville business is experiencing Groundhog Day every day.

That's because the groundhog has decided he's not going anywhere.

Martco Inc., a local surveillance equipment company, took pictures of their daily visitor, which you can see at right.

Officials say the groundhog comes out of his hole, sits on the windowsill and watches people work.

They've adopted the groundhog as their mascot, and named him "Marty," posting pictures of him online. They also give him snacks like bananas and trail mix.

Employees say they'll miss Marty's visits since they know he will soon go into hibernation.

Martco Inc. moved to its new building on Watterson Trail after U of L purchased its 100-year-old building to make way for the University's new soccer stadium.
