Austin LOVES monster trucks! So, when we saw Monster Jam was coming to town we couldn't pass up the chance to go see them. It made it even more exciting when we saw that Austin's favorite, the "doggy monster truck," aka El Toro was going to be there.
So, a bunch of Adam's family and my dad and Autumn came with us. Adam's family decided to make it a contest to see who could show up looking the most white trash. Adam thought we would fit in with the crowd but when we got there we really stood out. It was quite embarrassing being dressed up like I was but more embarrassing being seen with Adam. He really went all out. Austin had a mohawk that I actually thought was pretty cool and would have probably let him keep for a few days but Adam thought it would be too big of a distraction at church. Adam also had a mohawk, but his was pretty nasty looking.
So, my final review of the event was that it was fun but got long for the kids. I think it would be better in a larger arena because the trucks were really limited in what they could do. The exhaust and the dust did get to be a little much towards the end. But, on the plus side, the motorcycles were really cool and getting to see the monster trucks fly through the air was also pretty cool. All in all, it was a fun family outing.
