Lipton Hard Iced Tea is taking its 2025 Groundhog Day celebrations to the next level — literally.
Before February 2, the drink company is hitting the road with their nine-foot-tall “Can Daddy” groundhog statue. Constructed from 6,000 cans of Lipton Hard Ice Tea’s popular Citrus Green Tea flavor, this larger-than-life sculpture will be making appearances in Pennsylvania. Fans aged 21 and over can catch a glimpse of “Can Daddy” in person and enjoy free drink samples at various locations.
If you’re in Pittsburgh, head to The Curry Hollow Shopping Center on Friday, January 31, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET. The following day, on February 1, “Can Daddy” will be at the corner of Maple St. & Willow Ave. in Indiana, Pennsylvania, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. ET. Even if you can’t see the statue in real life, you can still participate by entering Lipton Hard Iced Tea’s Groundhog Day Flyaway vacation sweepstakes.
Don’t miss the chance to win $5,000 for a warm-weather getaway for you and a guest. To enter, visit the Lipton Hard Iced Tea website. Act fast as the sweepstakes close at the end of Groundhog Day on Sunday. Get in on the excitement of the holiday with “Can Daddy” and the chance to win a dream vacation.
In addition to winning a tropical getaway, fans can also enter to win the “Can Daddy” statue. To join the “Can Daddy” giveaway sweepstakes, tea lovers can visit @liptonhardtea on Instagram and comment “Groundhog.”
Joining in on the Groundhog Day fun is none other than America’s favorite internet-famous groundhog, Chunk the Groundhog. Just as Punxsutawney Phil will predict when spring will arrive, the adorable viral animal will decide which Lipton Hard Iced Tea flavor is his favorite — Lemon, Strawberry, Peach or Citrus Green Tea.
“Stay tuned!!” the groundhog teased in a Thursday, January 30, Instagram video.
