I knew this day would come. The minute I gave birth to a son, I knew that I would find myself in the screaming masses at a Monster Jam. According to their press release, Monster Jam is the world’ s largest and most famous monster truck tour featuring the biggest names in monster trucks, including Gravedigger and more with two elements to every show: racing and freestyle.  I can't say I will be going begrudgingly.
