There is this scene in one of my favorite movies Groundhog Day when Bill Murray’s character is lamenting the fact that he is living the same day repeatedly.
He says the following:
“I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. THAT was a pretty good day. Why couldn’t I get THAT day over, and over, and over.”
Which prompted a discussion with my wife about the one day we would want to live over and over. We both came up with the same one and it is number one on this list and might be a little unexpected.
Obviously, I will stick to sports for this Dooley’s Dozen and I do realize that for everyone the list would be different. But here are my 12 ideal Groundhog Days. But let’s work our way up to that climax, shall we?
