Default Monster Jam...

Well we brought the kiddo to Monster Jam tonight for his birthday and we had a blast. While we were there we sat about ten rows behind a guy wearing a LSX Shootout Jacket, and in the parking lot we followed out a pewter Trans Am on drag lites with a cam, sounded like a automatic with not much if any stall, but it did sound good. Anyhow my wife kinda laughed about it and said I probably find them on here so I figured I'd post it.

Yeah there was no comparison on the freestyle with Grave Digger and the other trucks. There were a couple that flipped that I think would have done pretty good.

I was in my Red Trans Am. Everyone kept staring at it. After the 15th person looked at the front my friend got out too see if there was something wrong with it haha. Some dude in a chevy truck kept revving at me.

There was a ton of big *** F250's and Ram 2500's in the parking lot. I was parked next to a hugger orange Ram 2500 with like a 10 inch lift.

It was cool when one of the trucks wheels broke off and sparks started shooting everywhere and the axle fell out. When that guy wrecked his yellow bronco or blazer was pretty badass too. We saw the suburban on a trailer when we were pulling out.

Who was driving Digger? We watched the live show on Speed saturday night and Anderson was driving it. Must be more than one.

Pastrana has someone else driving for him, so I doubt he shows. But yeah I thought the show was worth it, especially great for little ones cuz once stuff gets started there is no down time to lose their attention.
