*deep voice* Monster Trucks yeeaaaaaaaaa

Coopster and I went to see the Monster Truck show today. I brought my old, smaller camera to keep it undercover, and now reviewing the pictures I can see how much better the new camera is at low light performance. If only it was smaller! Anyway, back to the trucks - didn't have time to get earmuffs at Home Depot, so I was forced to pay an exorbi exorba exorbu........a lot of money at the show instead. So as a result they even look like monster truck tires. Oblivious to the shafting that dad just took, he looks cuter than a penguin at poker party don't ya think?



The crowd favorite Grave Digger was there, and of course, won 2 of the 3 challenges. Very effective mix of name recognition, leading edge engineering, and skilled driving there.



It's all fun and games until somebody loses a tire. Bonus excitement.

They also threw in some freestyle motocross dudes jumping a 70' gap and they were very impressive. Again, sorry for the total lackey pics but I suppose it's better than nothing. Somewhere up near the ceiling is a guy with both feet straight up in the air, holding on to only the rear fender.


In the end, Grave Digger launched himself off that huge dirt pile, which none of the other drivers were willing to do. *the crowd goes wild* Had a good time. I'm sure Ms.Reyna and the kids at daycare are gonna hear all about it on Monday....
