Giant trucks crushing things sometimes rule


Monster Jam Wooo!
Originally uploaded by hezcatt.
On Saturday Ian, Andy and I met at O'Briens for beer and potato skins before we headed over to ATT Park for Monster Jam 2007. We had some pretty excellent seats among the families and father/son duos.

For me, it was really an amazing experience. I had never been to a Monster Truck event. I had heard of Grave Digger, tho I don't know how or where. The energy in the arena was amazing. Literally, making you stand up out of your seat when the possibility of a truck rolling as it climbed over spray painted, beater cars seemed imminent. At one point, Bawitdaba from Kid Rock blasted on the speakers. I was so excited that I screamed the opening line of that song to Andy, "MY NAME IS KIIIIIIIIIIID ROOOOOOCK!!!" with my fist in the air. I believe it was lost on Andy since he was a designer jean wearing guy. I doubt that Kid Rock is in his CD collection. Well, it's probably not in any of yours either. I represent, yo!

We definitely got our MoJam on.

so awesome.
a couple years ago i was in vermont in the summer and we went to the local stock-car racing loop. Oh. My. God. One of the most fun things I've ever done. There was a couple standing against the fence - the guy's eye was patched where he'd been hit by shrapnel flying from the race. They had their baby's stroller pushed right up against the fence. Wouldn't want the little tyke to miss out on the action. My friend knew a driver so we got to go back into the pit!!
