If a new bar in Brooklyn wants to keep business up, they may have hope for a "Groundhog Day" scenario.
Legendary comedian Bill Murray worked behind the bar at his son Homer's new restaurant in Greenpoint Friday night.
The space once housed Homer Murray's restaurant River Styx, but was transformed into a venue dubbed "Greenpoint 21."
Hundreds of people lined around the block, after word got out that the former Ghostbuster was going to shake and stir drinks.
Murray's son said he was encouraged by the huge turnout, even if some people did not get in the door.
"Hopefully it just encourages people to come down and have a good time, as we want everyone to, every day of the week," Homer Murray said. "It doesn't have to be a special occasion necessarily, except for these psychopaths who showed up!"
Those who were waiting wished the bar well, but made no secret of why they turned out.
"Hopefully meeting Bill Murray," one man said. "I'm actually from the Bronx, so I'm traveling, a little bit out here and stuff. I had a free night, so said why not come out here. But hopefully the bar does good."
Murray's son says he plans to serve drinks again later tonight.
