This was my first Monster Jam. I had a blast!! I can't wait till next year.
To be completely honest, I was very disappointed! First the tickets said event will take place rain or shine; well it was poring rain I had to pay $20 for regular parking if I would have coughed up another$20 I could have had preferred parking which means I woul have only had to walk 3 miles from my car to the event in the rain. Then I get to the entrance with my umbrella because it is poring rain and some snotty employee tells me I can either take my umbrella back to my car or throw it in the trash because I can't bring it in, mind you it's poring rain. Finally I'm inside and the tickets I spent $40 each for are great seats if it wasn't poring rain that day, and to top that all off the drivers could barely drive due to the poring rain. All in all I'm severly disappointed and out of 120 bucks But on a better note I got to write this review !
I loved the fact that we saw a lot of monster trucks but the location is too small for these performers. I thought the act of the four wheeler guys was lame. That part should be cut out.
Event was good other than the rain that ruined it. Paid unacceptable $20 to park at the edge of parking lot and walked through tons of heavy rain only to get completely soaked because they didn't allow umbrellas in the park. Event should b cancelled when that much rain is present. Could not sit in assigned seats due to rain.
We are die hard fans, so YES we sat in the pouring rain and watched the whole show. That being said, I thought the overall events were lacking. The biggest let down was having to pay $20.00 FOR PARKING!!! THAT SUCKED! I would not go again to Dodger Stadium for that very reason alone!!
My kiddos first experience with live Monster Jam...THEY LOVED IT!! Marta ride was great...event staff was extremely helpful!!...venue site was perfect...seats were great... atmosphere was awesome...show was extremely exciting!! I loved seeing the amazement on my kids faces!!! My daughter is 10, my son is 6...I'm the "awesome and cool" mom!! Ha, ha
Started out a little slow, was frustrated that the "main attraction" trucks seemed to break down again shortly after the show started. But after intermission, they seemed to get it together. The trucks were fixed, and the second half lived up to it's reputation.
It was a pretty good show, but I have seen better in the past...the obsticles on the course were what I think was hurting the show...there wasn't really a whole lot there for the drivers to work with, I believe the drivers did their best with what they had to work with, but who ever designed the course did a poor job this year!!!
It was raining. then they delayed the show for like 30 minutes because of lightning... They should refund us the money or at least admit free to the next event.
The saving grace for this event was the BMX, motorcycle, and quad freestyle. Those guys rocked! The monster trucks, well, not so much.
The best EVER!!!!!! My son loved seeing Grave Digger and Max D :) I would definitely go again, but I will say this...Parking was ridiculous. We even got to park really close to the dome and we still had to pay $20 :(
Even though it was POURING cats and dogs, my boyfriend and I had a blast! The venue was very accomodating!
Was a great event and the kids had a blast. It was nice because they actually did things for the people at the top.
Would have really appreciated knowing that the pit was 2+ hours before the show and you were not able to leave the event in this waiting time period. Also a little disappointed on the track/jumps for the trucks. Understanding that the arena track space was too small for the event but should consider holding it in a different venue.
Great show in general. If you're planing on going, don't hesitate, you wont regret it... And getting the Pit Pass is a must,,, the set up is good, the staff is very helpful and the Monster Truck drivers are very friendly. Great experience!!!
It was raining and no umbrellas were allowed into the stadium. It was a cool event but it was raining and had 3 kids with me.
This was my first time at a monster truck/jam show and it was amazing. i would recommend going to anyone.
The seats were fantastic,the overall experance for my grandson&myself was off the chart. The price of this event was worth every cent, just to see the look of awe and joy on my 5yr oldgrandson's face will be a memory that i'll cherish forever.great job,cudos to the event crew and staff at the forum.looking forward to our next trip.
Supplied everything (earplugs). Concessions were unbelievably high, and the trucks put on a show. Lots of free give-aways and things to keep my kids attention during breaks. Seating and the arena was great. Thought the price tag was a little high, but worth it.
Dennis Anderson in Grave Digger rocked the house! It was AMAZING! Loved it, my kids loved it, and we WILL be back!!!
