Monster Jam
The Monster Jam World Finals roared into Rice-Eccles Stadium for an unforgettable July 4th weekend, crowning champions in a series of high-octane competitions! Todd LeDuc in Megalodon claimed his third and final championship in the Racing, while Tristan England in JCB Digatron secured his second title in the Skills Challenge. The event was packed with "WOW" moments, massive air, incredible saves, and spectacular crashes, making it an action-packed celebration of horsepower and skill. Our Sharetix recipients loved being able to see all of the thrilling moments in person and continues to be one of our favorite all-time events. It was a great way to celebrate the 4th of July complete with fireworks to cap it all off. Read below to see how much it meant for our recipients to experience Monster Jam in person:
“First off, Thank you so much for the tickets. We’ve never been to a monster jam competition or a pit party. My kids loved every min of it, even in the rain. I loved how we can meet the drivers and see the trucks before the event. We all had our favorite one who they were cheering for. As a single mom to 4 kids with a few with special needs this is something, I would never be able to afford. Thank you and you don’t know how much it means to us to experience this and create memories. Thanks for making this possible.”- Naela
“Monster trucks is a frequent topic that comes up at home and with friends. I was skeptical of the outcome due occasional sensory preferences that have come up in the past, but everything went great. It was a wonderful opportunity to bring the kids to a new environment without the stress of making it a perfect outing.” - Brady
“The first time being invited to this event it was amazing, seeing my granddaughter enjoy this activity was the best part.” - Ketty
“I took my kids to Monster Jam and they had a great time seeing all the trucks and enjoyed the show. The weather did cause some trouble but didn’t ruin the fun.” -Johnathan
“My kids' reactions were so much fun. They were in heaven watching the show. My oldest, who has Down Syndrome and Autism, is terrified of heights, so he had a hard time with our seats at first, but then once the fun of the show got going he was able to overcome his fear and have fun.” - Morgan
“Kids were happy to see the monster trucks in person. Lightning storm warning did not stop their excitement.” - Vihn
“The Pit party was so great, the event itself was a little hard as it was so loud but overall it was such a great experience.” - Andrew
“Thank you so much for your generosity. This is something our family could not afford on a fixed income. We are raising 4 special needs grandchildren as a kinship placement from foster care. Bless you!” - Samantha
“Our son LOVED seeing all the monster trucks, the live music and the fireworks. Such a special treat for a 1:1 time with our son.” - Hannah
“One of the youth that I took to the event said it was "the best experience that he's ever had!" The youth I work with are homeless and would not otherwise have these kinds of opportunities. Its so rewarding to see them get to have such special opportunities!” - Adrienne
“Being able to make the memories with my family. It was the best reminder why I stay sober.” - Jessie
The best part of the event was…”The shark monster truck taking breaks after flipping over.” - Azure
“Experiencing monster trucks with my 6 year old was amazing, we watch them on TV and never thought I'd get to take him.” - Shaynna
“I really liked the beginning of wreck deck tech deck. I thought that was so cool grinding the rail. The whole thing was really exciting. For a first time ever even experiencing monster trucks it was such an awesome experience. The crowd was wild - the vibe was awesome. The whole thing was such a cool experience.” - Austin
“It was a whole new experience. I have always wanted to see this type of show. It was so nice.” - Arturo
