DuBois

The aptly named DuBois (meaning "the woods") is close to miles of forests, making this small town a haven for nature-lovers, hunters, hikers, and anybody seeking the quiet of the outdoors. But DuBois is also home to antiques, inns, country stores, and golf, making it a popular tourist destination. Restaurants and shopping abound. Nearby Driftwood is the ancestral home of a famous area resident - Tom Mix, Hollywood's "King of the Cowboys" in the silent era. The home of the Penn State DuBois campus, the town is accessible by DuBois Regional Airport in Falls Creek.

Almost missed the bus in Dubois
Submitted by: Jamie
Back in my college days, I used to take a bus home to Pittsburgh from State College. One particularly long ride took me through Dubois. I had to go to the bathroom so bad, but I didn’t want to use the stinky bus bathroom. When the driver stopped at a rest area, I got off to use the bathroom at the stop. The line was long so it took a while. When I came back out the bus was actually pulling away. I ran in front of the moving bus yelling for him to stop. Good thing he did too because all my things were still on the bus! I have no idea what I would have done all alone in Dubois at night with nothing but an empty bladder.
