The event is about two hours, and while concessions are available, nobody – kid or adult – is going to want to stop cheering and eat. This dad was happy to take his little one to his first Monster Jam!ģ. If you buy them ahead of time, you can get them on Amazon for about $10. At $25 a piece for the over the ear protection, we opted for price over comfort, and it was fine. They were surprisingly effective, but I am sure headphones would have been more comfortable. Capital One arena had earplugs for a dollar (cash only – but of course there were ATMs because, Capital One), so we got some of those. You can buy them onsite, but you will pay handsomely for forgetting to bring your own. Not like concert loud, or fans at a basketball or football game loud – IT IS MONSTER TRUCK LOUD. Don’t forget your headphones/ear protection. In today’s climate, it felt good to see so many people from so many different backgrounds all in one place with their families enjoying the event. Like most sporting events, there was the national anthem, a thank you to the veterans, and a flag big enough to make to least patriotic person feel proud to be in America.

Watch monster truck jam tv#
“People like us” might watch all sorts of sports on TV (I truly enjoyed dirt bikes and motor cross), but attend? Not likely. By “people like us” I don’t mean black – I knew black people went to racing events – but many of us ASSUME that a lot of racing events had a “type” of attendee. Growing up in the south, we had funny car, drag racing, monster trucks, and all kinds of vehicle based entertainment, but those weren’t sporting events that “people like us” went to see. My son, his friend, my husband and I headed to Capital One area after church to check out Monster Jam, and a few things surprised me.
