Akron 2003

The 2003 Akron, Ohio event of Monster Jam at the John S. Knight Center was infamous for the gas leak that occurred during Show 2, which delayed it for at least 2 hours and caused the wheelie and donut competitions to be called off.

WNEO and WEAO broadcasted the shows live as part of the local PBS broadcasts arranged by PBS and Clear Channel as part of the PBS Kids co-promotion with Monster Jam.

The event is also notable for having 2 Monster Patrol trucks: Paul Shafer's original truck and 2Xtreme's truck.
