If the Big Sneeze happens in late July/Early August, you might have a seriously eye-catching/mind-blowing sight up I-79 North of the Turnpike. Swaghauler has probably driven by it and wondered "What the hell are those people doing there????"
Each year at the cusp of July and August, for a bit over 2 weeks, over 10,000 medieval reenactors from all over the world coalesce at a large campground located on the northwest corner of the intersections of Rte 422 and I-79. Imagine several thousand Crazies in armor with shields and swords and bows and crossbows all dressed in Middle Ages garb. Welcome to the Society for Creative Anachronism's annual Pennsic War.
Heck, it could be Ground Zero!
This could be interesting BUT Pennsic is located in Slippery Rock PA about 50 miles North of downtown Pittsburgh and more than 90 miles North of New Stanton and I70W. An alternate option would be to have the Infected be from the Pittsburgh Renaissance Faire. This "Faire" runs EVERY WEEKEND throughout the month of September and into October and is located just East of the Walt's Mills exit of I70W. It is two miles South of the interchange at I70W and RT 31 South. This is about midway between the Monessen River crossing at Rt88 South & I70W (at the town of Monessen) and the New Stanton exit on I70.
