Expect a lot of rednecks.... and a lot of civilized people dressed as rednecks laughing at the real rednecks... eventually it gets so confusing no one can tell the real rednecks from the fake rednecks and everyone is laughing at each other... I think they have trucks driving around at some point too

This will be my group.
I'm going with some other dads and our boys. First time in 25 years for me to attend one of these, but my friends have been going for the last few years and said they have a blast.

Wife and I are taking our two year old son. He loves the shite out of monster trucks, fire trucks, dump trucks, Dada's truck, etc. We won't make it the whole show, but I'm thinking seeing his face for 15 minutes of the monster trucks will be well worth the $100 I've already got invested in this trip.

I actually liked it. It's not as bad as what people say. I couldn't do NASCAR however.

NASCAR is more like an LSU football game than monster trucks

remember that New Orleans is a regional destination and the monster truck fanbase is somewhat regional... the fanbase will range from Lafayette to Mobile bc how often do they see Monster trucks...

oh and a lot of kids.

I meant the scene around the track/stadium, it's just like pretty much any SEC tailgate


And just like football half the people there don't care about what's going on inside

pretty sure it's not at Cajun Field... Monster Trucks are different in domes as opposed to arenas

Bring some ear protection for the little one. My husband brings my son sometimes and they say it's really loud.
