This past weekend the Rogers Centre hosted Monster Jam; a high octane, high flying and maximum horsepower MONSTER TRUCK rally.  Thousands of fans were entertained as Monster Jam raced eleven of its BIGGEST TRUCKS and most experienced drivers.   The Fan Favorite was GRAVE DIGGER; it was the first time the 27-year veteran DENNIS ANDERSON has raced on CANADIAN soil. It proved to be his day.

It was all GRAVE DIGGER in the end taking home the trophy as well as keeping fans on the edge of their seats during ONE of his many a two minute driving exhibition plus "bonus time" .  Throughout his timed routine Anderson further showed of why he is the undisputed king of Monster Truck driving.

GRAVE DIGGER's ANDERSON was in the zone!!!! He achieved more AIR than any other driver.

During his bonus run his TRUCK jumped, bounced and rocked on the dirt track until finally flipping it on his roof.

The Rogers centre exploded and he had the CROWD on their feet, cheering for the memorable performance.

MADUSA

Her first time back in action since 2005.

Entering into competition with some of the best drivers in the industry is very intimidating, but she proved she could handle the pressure and take on the field.

WARRIOR

The Warrior was off to a great start during qualifying but lost the quarter final race to Maximum Destruction

BACKDRAFT

Another FAN FAV but it simply wasn't driver's Jeremy Slifko day as he flipped the TRUCK in true MONSTER TRUCK RALLY FASHION

THE BROKER

The Broker was in the red all day and couldn't be bailed out

PROWLER

The Prowler had a great day until a "wardrobe malfunction" forced him out of the runnin' for the OUTRIGHT and UNDISPUTED CANADIAN CIRCUIT MONSTER TRUCK BRAGGIN RIGHTS, to be determined on JANUARY 31st in VANCOUVER

BULLDOZER

Was knocking on GRAVE DIGGERS door all afternoon, DRIVER CHUCK WERNER had his hands full and throttle opened up during his qualifying and during his freestyle routine.  This aggressive driving finally paid off as BULLDOZER AS HE WON THE MONSTER JAM RACING FINAL

MAXiMUM DESTRUCTION

After shedding a couple of LBS smashing his fiberglass body during qualifying Maximum Destruction aka "NO FRILLS”, may have still been reeling from a long Saturday night at Croc Rock.
