Looks Like the Green Monster is Gone (1 Viewer)

[Bullard Anderson]

I don't know Monster's lingo/slogan, but I'm sure it has something to do with performance. The FC didn't have it this year. I'd be disappointed too!! Folks can look for all the other reasons they want to. But Monster is a high profile sponsor, and it's hard to see the car when it's not on the track Sunday's.

I thought this was going to be about Art Arfons!?!?

I did also!! I did not even think about the Monster Energy Funny Car! I guess it shows how well their sponsership has been going.

I thought Arfons was retiring

Technically impossible at this point in time, unfortunately.

Arfons passed his final measured mile last December.

(In my opinion, there has never been a greater American hero....)

I never got to see Art race, but he was a mainstay in the tractor pulling scene that my Dad used to take me to as a kid. Had the twin-turbine (helicopter engines iirc) "Green Monster 2" in the unlimited class ...

at first, I thought they were remodeling Fenway Pahk.

That was my first thought too, Mark!!!

Jeez, I thought this thread had something to do with Art Arfons.

Dave

Like alot of y'all, I thought this was about Art, thought if it was about Fenway, it would be in the lounge.

Only Monster I've tried are Blue and Coffee... oh well, live and learn...

Jeez, I thought this thread had something to do with Art Arfons. Dave

And I thought it might be about FENWAY PARK.......

 

[rollingthunder]

Yes i thought it was about art arfons also. I saw him and his daughter Dusty at the tractor pulls also.

 

[possum]

That's where i'd seen him too. I agree with Cole on the greatest hero part.

That Monster energy drink stuff is quite grotesque. Three cans of it made me dizzy Even being thirsty in the blazing sun with lovely girls giving out ice cold free cans of it i'd still pay the 3 bucks for a Coke instead.

I find it ironic that the energy drinks market towards the younger X Games crowd when it's actually us tired old farts who could probably use it more!

I drank a monster once during a century bike ride. at mile 60. Stupidest thing I ever did. Felt great for 5 minutes. then felt like dying.


I was afraid this thread was about fenway park...whew....

That's the crash that comes after drinking one of the green ones. Try one with the blue M on the can and there's no crash afterward.
