Welcome to
Steeltown Kids

First we ate TV dinners, and then me and Mom hit the road.  It was a while before we got to Copps Coliseum, partly because the snow and partly because of the distance.  Mom backed into her parking spot (in a big van) in one try!

We went to the mall, looked at the wall-fountain and, played a few games at a pub, and then left.  By then, a heavy snow was fallling, and the doors were opened.  We went in and sat, for about 15 minutes until they put in a mauve scrap car.  Then a weird thing called the "Overdrive" drove all over it. 

Then we waited about half an hour for them to advertise a bunch of new trucks by driving them in circles.  Then all the monster trucks came in and drove on to crush cars.

The emcee announced the name of the driver, their home, and the name of the truck.  Then they all exited and entered one by one for the "Wheelie Competition". 

Gravedigger won and I think that's fair.  Then the Monster Trucks came in two by two (except for Gravedigger, who raced against himself) for racing.   Gravedigger, Batman, Aftershock, and Jurassic Attack made it to the next round.

Then small ATVs came in for a race, and Team Toronto won, (it figures).  Then the monster trucks raced in the "semi-finals".  Kristy Edge, who was driving Jurassic Attack were having engine trouble, but managed to get out in time to race Gravedigger.  Gravedigger, of course, won.  

Then Aftershock and Batman raced, and of course Batman won.  Then more ATVs came in and raced, and Team Hamilton won.  Then, in the ATV finals, Toronto won, leaving it 3-2 Team Toronto.  

Then a van pulled in two big ramps, and a pillowed wall (big & gray) was inflated.  I thought the ramps were way too far apart, but when three motocross bikes (red, white, and blue) came in, and started doing tricks, I changed my mind.  They had lots of room.

Blue did some cool tricks (like standing on the handlebars in mid-air).  Mom and I thought the White guy was better. (He let go of the whole bike!) The Blue guy won, but too late, as they realized that Blue had slipped off the ramp. 

Then they all came out for one more trip.  White then did a somersault (bike included) in mid-air!  He really is the best.  Then they decided White was better.  Then the Monster Trucks did 60 second freestyle, and of course Gravedigger won.  Then we headed home.
