Anyone follow the world of monster trucks? I’ve never gotten into it, but it does seem interesting. I feel like the world of pro wrestling has decent overlap with it. How would one go about watching it? Has there ever been a weekly show of it, or just specials? And what are the competitions? I’ve seen some really cool trucks over the years, and heard folks talk about the rallies, but that’s about it. Not sure if this belongs in the Sports board or not.

I think there's a big overlap of wrestling/nascar/truck fans.
I wonder if there are dirt sheets for Monster Trucks or collectable websites where people get mad if the truck has the wrong type of wheels or something.

I think "Monster Jam" is still on tv. It used to be fairly popular, and I think, "Grave Digger" still is.

Used to love them when I was a kid. Especially Snake Bite and No Problem. Still have a weak spot for Grave Digger. But don't actively watch any of it and haven't for 25 years.

I think "Monster Jam" is still on tv. It used to be fairly popular, and I think, "Grave Digger" still is. Monster Jam is ran by Feld Entertainment, the same company that runs shows such as Disney on Ice. Feld owns Grave Digger since Dennis Anderson sold the rights to his truck to Clear Channel which was then bought out by Feld. A good majority of the trucks that run in Monster Jam are owned by Feld. They do allow independent trucks to run Monster Jam. A lot of people say Monster Jam is rigged since Feld owns most of the trucks but hey it's entertainment. An alternative to Monster Jam is Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live. I don't know if they televise any of their shows but it's worth checking out since they have Bigfoot
