That crashing sound you just heard was Monster Jam zooming back into Fiserv Forum early next year. The ultimate in dirt-tearing, destruction and intense driving will return to the next Downtown arena for two days and three shows on Jan. 18-19, 2020.

This particular stop comes as part of Monster Jam's Triple Threat series, featuring eight skilled Monster Jam drivers, six different competitions – ranging from racing to freestyle and skills – and three different types of Monster Jam vehicles entering the dirt-covered ring. As an added bonus, during the freestyle portion of the contest, one driver will attempt Milwaukee's first indoor arena-based Monster Jam truck backflip. 

Saturday, Jan. 18 will feature two Monster Jam shows – 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. – with a matinee performance on Sunday, Jan. 19 at 1 p.m. In addition to the shows, fans can get close to the stars of the show – the trucks – and snag autographs from their favorite drivers and more at the Monster Jam Pit Party, taking place both Saturday and Sunday from 10:30 a.m. until noon. (Daytime event ticket and Pit Party Pass required for entry.)

Tickets for Monster Jam start at $15 a seat, with Pit Party Passes costing $20. Admission goes on sale to the general public starting Tuesday, Sept. 24 at Fiserv Forum's website and the box office – but Monster Jam preferred customers can get access to presale tickets starting today. To sign up and become a preferred customer, visit Monster Jam's official site

As much as it is a gigantic cliché to say that one has always had a passion for film, Matt Mueller has always had a passion for film. Whether it was bringing in the latest movie reviews for his first grade show-and-tell or writing film reviews for the St. Norbert College Times as a high school student, Matt is way too obsessed with movies for his own good.

When he's not writing about the latest blockbuster or talking much too glowingly about "Piranha 3D," Matt can probably be found watching literally any sport (minus cricket) or working at - get this - a local movie theater. Or watching a movie. Yeah, he's probably watching a movie.
