Last Saturday a couple friends and I attended the monster truck show (Monster Jam) at the 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore. I had never been to a monster truck show before, and the fact that I’m being into cars, I thought it’d be a fun thing to do. My first impression when I walked in…the place was tiny…how are they going to drive these huge trucks around in here? 1st Mariner Arena is way too small for this sort of even in my opinion, the trucks had to slam on their brakes after jumping over a few cars. This was nothing like I had seen on TV.

The trucks are all pretty awesome, running with open headers, they are super loud. They also tried to have a little WWE style fun by having 3 races on quads, Baltimore vs. New York. Of course being in Baltimore, they was a crowd favorite, and when NY lost there was a big fight…it was pretty comical. Other than that, I thought it was pretty fun…but probably not something I’d do again unless it was at a huge place where they are jumping through semi’s and flipping the trucks. I’m glad I was able to check this off the things to do in my life list though.

Here’s a few pics of the event, sorry for the bad quality:
