We watched Monster Jam at Levi's Stadium last year, and enjoyed ourselves so much! Monster Jam already visited the Bay Area last month (in Oakland), but sadly we were unable to attend. I was unprepared for how disappointed The Pea would be. After all, she's a 14 year-old teen girl, and not the kind of person I'd expect to enjoy Monster Jam. But it just goes to show you that Monster Jam really is entertainment for the whole family! We all love watching Grave Digger, Stone Crusher, El Diablo, and more race, spin, slip, and crash! The whole race is absolutely crazy!
