Advanced Auto Parts
Monster Jam
Path of Destruction
Recently our family had the pleasure of being a part of the first Advanced Auto Parts Monster Jam Path of Destruction to take place at Met Life Stadium in New Jersey. Now if that wasn’t enough to get the kids and us parents excited, nothing ever would be! We have been to Monster Jam plenty of times but it has always been an indoor venue. As much as love the indoor event, it was a whole different dynamic to see the trucks on tons and tons of dirt and massive cars piled on cars and ready for destruction. We were so pumped for the day and it turned out to exceed our expectations on every level!
Our great day started with a gigantic outdoor Pit Party! This party rocked NJ! There was a Monster Truck in every direction for as far as your eye could see and drivers everywhere. You could even take a ride on a Monster Truck in a special area. We did not get a chance to do that, but I wish we did. It really looked like fun. We could have spent hours at the Pit Party, there was so much to do. You could get your collection of photos and autographs from everyone, create a sign for your favorite truck and driver, grab some delicious treats, watch some car crushing, see the motorcycles in the ball, and my favorite the Grave Digger 30th anniversary tribute. There was something for everyone.
If that was not enough, there were also motorcross and other activities taking place inside Met Life Stadium, along with rides on Monster trucks on the inside dirt track.
Before long we headed inside to get ready for the first Advanced Auto Parts Monster Jam Path of Destruction at Met Life Stadium. The energy of the fans was out of reach as the cheers began to filled the tens of thousands of seats!
Day turned to night as Monster Truck after Monster Truck faced off to show their stuff.
Father and Son versed each other as Grave Digger versed Grave Digger The Legend. I’m not so sure I was happy with the fact that son beat out father the day before Father’s Day, but I guess it happens right?
Of course my sons went crazy for the World of Marvel Super Heroes which included Spider Man, Wolverine, Iron Man, and Captain America. One was tougher than the next.
Other Monster Trucks that rocked the house were Madusa, Monster Mutt, Monster Energy, Lucas Oil Crusader, Advanced Auto Parts Grinder, Team Hot Wheels, El Toro Loco, Metal Mulisha, and Mowhawk Warrior.
The end of the night commenced with Tom Meents driving Maximum Destruction! He was trying for a first time ever double flip. You can check out the video below to he that he almost made it. Of course, no one was disappointed in the crowd. It’s not like it’s an easy thing to do!
No matter where you live in the USA an Advanced Auto Parts Monster Jam is coming to a city near you. Don’t miss out on the fun. Monster Jam fans are guys and girls and all ages from non-walkers to oldies! It really doesn’t matter, does it? The only thing you will miss by not going to Monster Jam is a great day out filled with excitement and fun! We are already looking forward to our next Monster Jam and hoping it’s not in the too far future!
