I wish The National Guard would have had a chance to bring a truck up to this show. Like they did in I think it was 2004 ,it was really cool top see that truck get air like it did.

I agree with keith, it was nice for the men drivers to go easy on the woman and let her win a couple races. Be all you can be.

I took my family (husband and two boys ages 5 and 7) to this truck show. My boys really enjoyed it, especially the jet golf-cart. I did get a little scared when it tipped over.

Me and my family also went and yes I agree with everyone it was a good show but around here if you want more people to come out you need to make the prices a little more affordable. Yes I understand that it costs them money to come here and set all this up, but they would make more money if the prices were cheaper.

The problem today is no matter what the show or product they want to make it all on one sell. I know costs are passed down but each cog in that wheel wants all the grease.Can't be...so we find ourselves in this depression. We have the rest of the month to go & its only the 11th........to much month at the end of the money ( and that is getting shorter & shorter). If the heating bill this last month wasn't 365.00 maybe I could have afforded the show. Nobody can afford doing the things I was able to do growing up the kids are the ones who miss out. For example= Did the price of a soda go up that much? What about ice & plastic cups? Making 4 dollars off one cup of pop is trying to make it all...I doubt they had as much as a dollar in each cup.

We went to the one at Nationwide Arena in Columbus this year...it was much better than the one at Big Sandy...and also the tickets were cheaper.

As much as I like stuff like this I have to say the Huntington event isn;t big enough for $23 admission.

The tickets are to high and the show was not that good we went today and I was very disappointed for the price it was not worth it. Adults tickets 23 dollars and kids 12 and under 9 dollars. We also had the worst seats.

The ticket prices are AWFUL !!! You can't afford to take a family with this price that is $66 just for a family of three !! plus $5 for drink etc it cost a small fortune to go !!
