Monster Trucks are Coming Back to Evansville for Summer Smash July 11 & 12
Summer Smash is heading to the Vanderburgh County 4-H center, and WKDQ has your chance to score tickets!
Monster Truck Obsessed
My dad is a gearhead, and so I grew up going to car shows, race tracks, and of course monster truck shows. Once I got older, I stopped going to those things as much as I used to, and to be honest, I had totally forgotten how much I enjoyed watching big loud engines do things that take a whole lot of horsepower. That is, until a 2-year-old little boy reminded me just how cool those big trucks really are.
Here's my dad and Riley at Summer Smash last year.
When my son was two, we took him to his first monster truck show, and we weren't really sure if he would like it. But he wore his noise-canceling headphones like a champ and ended up becoming obsessed. Riley's third birthday last September was even monster truck-themed. The kid can't get enough.
Not a day goes by that we aren't racing monster trucks across our living room floor or watching monster truck compilations on YouTube. If you've got a monster truck-obsessed kiddo in your life, or maybe you're just fascinated by these mammoths flipping and flying through the air, you'll be excited to know that Summer Smash is heading back to the 4-H Center!
So far, the following trucks are slated to be there, with more to be announced!
- Avenger
- Axe
- Bad Company
- Black Pearl
- Bounty Hunter
- Culture Shock
- Mayhem
- Mega Bite
- Miss Over Bored
- Over Bored
- Roaring Rex
- Sharkbite
- The Wrecker
- Wild Side
