Snakes take the spotlight at Opp Rattlesnake Rodeo
Most rodeos have horses and cattle, but for more than 60 years, folks in Opp have held their unique rattlesnake rodeo.
The event was first organized as a fun-filled, family friendly weekend with snake shows, arts and crafts and good food.
Over the years, the rodeo has grown to include other activities such as snake races, dancing contests, children’s activities and musical entertainment.
This year’s event features some top name entertainers: Confederate Railroad, Tracy Lawrence and Shenandoah.
The Opp Rattlesnake Rodeo runs from Friday-Sunday, March 21-23.
