Wait.....anywhere from 2 weeks to a year depending on the county.

That's the general process...I'm sure someone will post all the nitty gritty if you ask.

Some counties have restrictions.  Some do not.

I live in Cattaraugus where all permits are issued with no restrictions...and yep....I have one.

I used to go to concerts at the BC Arena!  

I'm from Athens, about 40 miles west of Binghamton, just inside PA.

Is there a non-resident permit?

No, for all practical purposes.

The statute actually does allow the issuance of a non-resident permit, but nobody has ever heard of one actually being issued.

The Arena used to get lots of good shows, sadly there are very few now.  My cousins all went to Athens H.S. and I've still got a few relatives in that area.  My Dad grew up in Sayre, PA.
