Went to the one in Sweetwater a few years back and it was pretty good had lots of exhibits and things to do and look at.

I really think they are pretty neat, Education, guns, knives, all sorts of other redneck stuff, and crazy people. Sounds like a normal weekend in the early spring in West Texas

I went to the one in lometa a few years back and it was awesome lots of stuff to see and do. not to sure if they still do it there or not.

No way....I don't like snakes!

Check and see if Walnut Springs is still doing theirs.

Went to Sweetwater years ago and it was really cool. Only problem was that there weren't enough DEAD snakes - that's the only way I like 'em.

Sad I know, but I've never been to one. Need to make plans to go sometime, sounds like lots of stuff to do besides snakes.

Been to the one in Sweetwater when we used to hunt down the road. Its pretty cool. Had a gun knife show, and even got to eat some rattlesnake at a ridiculous over price for your common texas rattler. It was good though. Skinned and cooked the next one I killed!

If you find another one its definately worth going to.

Here is the link to the Taylor Jc rattlesnale sacking championship for 2010. As far as I know, its going on this year as well. I grew up in Taylor, went to this thing a bunch as a kid. My favorite part is eating some fried rattlesnake...taste kinda like chicken.
