Hello again my friends and welcome back to the weekly column. First off I hope that everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Things were very busy down here at the Monster Jam studios as we held our annual Monster Jam Summit, welcoming hundreds of drivers, hosts, and staff members to our vast facilities here at Feld Entertainment as we prepare for the 2025 season. Then of course “Turkey Day” took over and at my house it was all about family, food, and football. However, while some of us were helping ourselves to seconds, some of the hardest working folks in Monster Jam were leaving their families and getting on airplanes for the final events of the year in Omaha.

 

There were two amazing events at CHI Health Center in Nebraska and as always if you couldn’t be there in person, we had you covered with our popular YouTube live streams, which are still available to watch if you want to check them out. On Saturday, Brandan Tulachka edged out Armando Castro to lead Just Get Er Done II to the JCB Racing win to start off the action. The “Black and Green Wrecking Machine” got in the win column shortly thereafter as Matt Cody piloted Grave Digger to victories in Skills and Sky Wheelie and not to be out done, Jon Zimmer Jr picked up the Freestyle win in Terminal Velocity. As every Monster Jam fan knows there can be only one Overall Event Champion and on this particular day, it was 2024 Arena Championship Series West Champion. Matt Cody in Grave Digger.

 

Then on Sunday veteran driver Jon Zimmer Sr. found his way to victory lane as Uproar won the JCB Racing Competition. In the Skills challenge it was Jon Zimmer Jr keeping the wins with the family as Terminal Velocity outlasted the competition, but the night eventually belonged to Grave Digger as Matt Cody took wins in Donuts and Freestyle enroute to another event championship trophy closing out the 2024 season.

 

What a year it has been for Monster Jam and with this season in the books we can continue to look ahead to next year which has the potential to be our biggest year yet. 2024 was certainly a year where we had so much to be thankful for, and I know I speak for everyone in the company when I say how truly thankful we are for each and every one of you. I will be right here with you over the next few weeks to get you ready for 2025 as Monster Jam continues to be As Big As It Gets!
