WILKES-BARRE TOWNSHIP, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU)— Here's the dirt on the Monster Jam at Mohegan Arena.
The event will be held this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and Thursday the dirt for the big show arrived.
The big trucks are a fan favorite.
Fire department holds dedication for new truck
Imagine this, a hockey game was played at the arena last night, and Thursday crews are transforming arena for Monster Jam.
"It's wild. I call them the show before the show, because, to your point, there was a hockey game right here 12 hours ago, but our team moves in at 7:00 a.m. They bring in 120 truckloads of dirt, you know, it's a track construction team of six people. They do a phenomenal job, and by three o'clock, you will see a monster jam track right here," said Juan Cruz, Monster Jam Tour Manager.
And so you know different kinds of dirt are laid down for different venues, it varies city to city. Our dirt is right from our area. Tickets are still available.
