Drowned Hogs Day Photo Gallery

In the bleak mid-winter hundreds of intrepid (insane) and be-costumed Bostonians (and those from the surrounding environs) gathered together on the chilly Nantasket Beach to prove a groundhog isn't the only one who can predict whether we'll have an extended winter.

With a rallying cry from the Head Hog perched high atop a lifeguard's chair, the 14th Annual Drowned Hogs Day kicked off with an icy plunge in the Atlantic Ocean.

Bostonist was there to catch all the frigid action and is happy to report the Drowned Hogs have predicted we will have a quick release from winter's icy grasp, as some Hogs frolicked for multiple (!) minutes in the ocean surf.
