NASHVILLE, TN (WFTV) — Monster Jam is coming to Nashville Saturday and Sunday.

Which means the big Monster Trucks are taking over Bridgestone Arena.

The signs and ads say get ready to cheer, scream and be amazed. And just seeing the size of these trucks I can understand why.

The 12,000-pound trucks will compete for speed and skill. During that they will have different events where they fly through the air and stand on two wheels and perform other tricks.

Families can get there early for the Monster Jam Pit Party. There, they can meet the drivers up close and personal, and take selfies and get autographs.

Showtimes are 1 p.m. with the pit party from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. both days. And on Saturday there is an additional show at 6:30 p.m.

You can find more information about the shows and tickets here.

This is a beautiful story of chosen family, proving a father figure doesn't have to have biology in common to make a difference in a child's life. The story of De'Andre and Alex will remind you that our relationships help determine the course of our lives. And that being supportive of someone - through a meal, a shared experience or even swim lessons can make all the difference.
