We were there...
MJ might be one of the biggest monster truck fans in the country. He's such a devoted fan, he's made big monster truck fans out of his mom and me, too!
So, as a family, we have been to two monster truck shows in the past few months:
- Monster Jam Peoria on February 4, 2006; and
- Monster Nationals in Champaign, Illinois on February 11, 2006.
It was awesome to meet Tom Meents at the Pit Party at Monster Jam Peoria! And it was great to see him win with Maximum Destruction in Peoria too! Likewise, it was just as cool to meet Mark Hall, the Raminator driver, and Dale Benear, the Rammunition driver, in Champaign at Monster Nationals! You guys (all from central Illinois!) rock!!!

We've only been to two shows (in Champaign, IL and in Peoria, IL) and two demonstrations (in Alton, IL and in Champaign, IL). But we enjoyed them a lot! We watch Monster Jam on SPEED Network as often as we can - in fact, we Tivo all the shows so we can see them!
Not only is Champaign the home of the Hall Brothers Racing Team (with Raminator and Ramunition), but Paxton - which is only 30 miles north of Champaign - is the home of Tom Meents, the seven-time Monster Jam world champion. Champaign loves monster trucks!!!
