Dream Schedule

[GWASAM]

For anyone who cares, I was wondering if you could chose 10-15 Venues for a dream monster truck schedule what would they be? Here's my list....

1) Pepsi Coliseum (Quebec)
2) ANZ Staduim (Sydney)
3) Gelredome (Antwerp)
4) Holt Arena (Pocatello)
5) Eldora Speedway (New Weston)
6) Edward Jones Dome (St. Louis)
7) Reliant Stadium (Houston)
8) Mansfield County Fairgrounds (Lima,OH)
9) Louisiana Superdome (New Orleans)
10) TacomaDome (Tacoma)
11) Qualcomm Staduim (San Diego)
12) Los Angeles Coliseum (Los Angeles)
13) Ford Field (Detroit)
14) Virginia Beach Ocean Front (Virginia Beach)
15) Sam Boyd Stadium (Las Vegas)

Please Note the Pontiac Silverdome was excluded since it is no longer operational, as was venues that haven't hosted an event yet, i.e. Soldier Field

Didn't soldier field do like one show in the 80's and city of chicago go bent out of shape about it?

 

[GWASAM]

If so, my point was to pic realistic venues. I would love to see them at the Daytona or Indianapolis infield but that won't happen either.

There was one at the daytona infield probably around 2003

Don't forget about Cowboys Stadium in Dallas. That place is killer for a monster truck show.

So what is your 10 or 15 gravediggerfan?

As a truck owner, here would be my dream schedule by city/venue and promoter:

Youngstown Covelli Centre - TMTT
Pittsburgh Consol Energy Center - Feld
Wheeling WesBanco Arena - Feld
Pittsburgh's Pennsylvania Motor Speedway - Track-promoted
Jennerstown Speedway - Monster X
Fayette County Fair - Performance Motorsports
Washington County Fair - Performance Motorsports
Westmoreland County Fair - Vaters Motorsports


Why this schedule? They're all close to home and I would be able to maintain a profit campaigning the truck at the closest local venues, the furthest of which being only an hour and a half away!

 

[GWASAM]

I can respect that view point. So, what truck do you own? How much would it take to turn a profit if you came to Michigan?

 

[carcrusher]

I don't own a truck, I'm saying that as a truck owner, a dream schedule would most likely be all hometown shows for them because there is no travel costs, which eats up a ton of expenses throughout a fiscal year for a team.

Yes, Popular Hot Rodding covered the event, that's where this centerfold was taken. No idea why the event ended though.

Yep, 2002, along the backstretch.
