I’d totally go, except I have something super important going on [insert whatever days this festival occurs]

I'd go but I'd probably burn the whole place down the first time I saw a tarantula.

Coarsegold is an interesting town. Their local Indian casino was taken over by an armed rival faction maybe 5-10 years ago during a tribal dispute. Never won a dime all the times I was driving through and stopped there.

Also it is horrible there. This has nothing to do with the Tarantuals, simply that Coarsegold is horrible.

TIL about Coarsegold, California which holds an annual Tarantula Festival to coincide with Tarantula mating season. The festival includes tarantula racing, a competition for the hairiest legs of both men and women, and a pumpkin dessert contest.
