A Family Tradition

We’ve now been to Monster Jam with the boys for the last two years. They absolutely love it and we have a good time as a family. This time we invited Bam Bam to join us. The boys were excited to share in this tradition with her. We got to the stadium early, paid $20 for parking, got our usual over-priced and not so healthy stadium concession dinner, and found out seats. The boys reminisced about where sat the last time we attended the show and enjoyed the pre-show entertainment….boomerangs. There were several new trucks along with the legends like Grave Digger. The boys were certain Grave Digger was going to win it all. He did win the races but lost in the freestyle competition. The freestyle portion of the show had some of the best showings I’ve seen. Unfortunately, Grave Digger ended the show with a very underwhelming dud of a performance. It was a bust. Additionally, there was NO halftime show. Usually there is a crash-up derby, quad racing…something!...this time – there was nothing. Despite the fact that it was in many ways, the worst Monster Jam we’ve been to, the boys are already asking when they come back. They look forward to our new family tradition.
