Anyone else go to Monster Trucks last night?

What was the name of that flame thrower vehicle that shot out those huge flames? Was that jet the same as a jet engine?

What would've been the temperature of that flame? Several thousand degrees? I could feel the heat on my face!

I guess that's what crew on aircraft carriers have to contend with when jets take off!

Maybe the recap of last night's show on the official Monster Jam web page has the answer?

those stupid shows shouldn?t be allowed in BC place. maybe the roof wouldn?t look so nasty if we didn?t have huge monster trucks, and moto cross races in there.

No they should have Monster Trucks here. Vancouver is the only city that doesn't sell out. They routinely get 60 - 70,000 in the States.

They should powerwash the fabric so it doesn't look so grimey.

Your first sentence: You're saying that they should.
Second sentence: Argument for not having it here.
Third sentence: Irrelevant.

They draw 250K to Indianapolis Motor Speedway on a number of occasions during the year.

Why should the monster truck show sell out here?

Um, sorry to ruin your run of things here...but that stadium looked more full for those moster trucks then some lions games. I even remember myself making the comment..."wow...its close to full in here, feels like a lions game."

Do you think it would be like that every other week?

I don't.
