Spexx, if you head up to Wellsboro, there are a couple of events that you might want to check out. The Mountain Laurel festival takes place up there, as does the Susquahannock Trail Pro Rally (awesome race, used to go every year), and, of course, the Rattlesnake Roundup.
Some years, these things all happen on the same weekend, although the Mountain Laurel festival people would usually arrive when the Pro Rally folks were leaving the Penn-Wells Hotel. Grubby race fans who have been awake for two days don't mix well with older people in freshly starched bermuda shorts. The Rattlesnake guys would usually go harvest snakes and then catch some of the race. Since they tended to carry their bags o' fresh-caught rattlers with them (to be used later at the festivities in town) they always got great parking and the best view at the spectator points.
