'Monster Nation' to hit Du Quoin fairgrounds Feb. 27 & 28

Lucas Oil Monster Truck Nationals at the Southern Illinois Center in Du Quoin -- presented by Black Diamond Harley Davidson -- invites You To Bigfoot's birthday bash and smash.

Ask anyone in the world to name the original and most famous monster truck and they will say: Bigfoot! This year Bigfoot turns the BIG 4-0 and you and your family and friends are invited to celebrate Bigfoot's 40th birthday with a bash on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 27 and 28 at the Southern Illinois Center.

More than just a bash, it will be a smash as not one, not two, but three Bigfoots demolish cars right before your eyes and battle each other in an incredible thrill show! Joining the car-crushing, axle-wrenching, high-flying competition will be Bigfoot's friends Raminator and Rammunition.

Prepare to be amazed as six 10,000 pound, high-powered monsters roar into action with side-by- side drag racing, gigantic jumps, wheelies, donuts, high-flying long jumps, and off-the-charts freestyles!

Plus, witness the amazing fire-breathing feats of the RockZilla, and meet drivers and get up close to their monsters at a free pit party before the show.

Come early, meet the drivers, get autographs and take photos of the drivers and their Monsters. Pit passes are free when accompanied by an event ticket. It will be like a true birthday party, games, cake, friends and fun!

Take a ride on the wild side aboard a real monster truck! The mighty monster ride truck will give adults and kids alike the ride of a lifetime!

Rockzilla is a green, fire-breathing fast-moving mechanical creature standing over 10 feet tall and stretching 25 feet long. RockZilla will thrill the audience between monster truck runs with danger-hungry feats that will amaze and delight.
