Monster Jam – Pit Party

*** I know, this is a month late. I’m working on catching up on some posts I’ve promised I’d share with everyone. ***

After the long, cold walk from the parking garage, we picked up our tickets and bought pit passes at will-call, and headed in for the party.

NASCAR could learn a little bit from Monster Jam. When I lived in Tennessee, I heard people talk about the old days in the sport, when NASCAR drivers were accessible to the fans. As its popularity has grown, the drivers have become more distant from the fans. One thing I learned from attending the pit party is that access to the drivers is a very important thing – especially to the younger fans. Aiden was super-excited to be there and meet some of his favorite drivers that he’s been watching on Speed TV. We waited for an hour to meet the driver of Grave Digger. And it totally made the trip worth it.

I hope to post pictures from the actual show today. It might not be until Thursday afternoon. We’ll have to wait and see. It all depends on how much work I get done in the office.
