I like how they clean the floors right before dumping a bunch of dirt onto it

Playing the king of the hill theme in my head

Slow this down to normal speed and you get a free basketball game plus a monster truck rally. I made this comment 3 years ago, why is this video still getting recommended to people

3:32 yo watch out!

And to think they did this all in only 4 minutes

I cannot believe this is economically viable for a single show

I used to work in events and it's absolutely like this. It just never stops, you're either bumping in, setting up, running the event, packing down or bumping out ready for the next client

Thats a tiny arena for monster trucks.

2:44: "Ah shit, here we go again."

It’s amazing how quickly the event went by compared to the all the prep/clean up.

YOU’LL PAY FOR RHE WHOLE SEAT, BUT YOU’LL ONLY NEED THE EEEEDDGGGEEE!!!!

This is one of those things that happens, but you never actually see it happen. Like putting an ad on a billboard

Anyone else impressed with how quickly they folded back the seats on the left side baseline? Talk about magic!

0:29 most powerful 1 man push hundreds chair

Can we take a moment to appreciate what these workers do?!

This video randomly appeared on suggestions It's interesting how KZfaq always shows random videos that are actually interesting to watch

And Kids seats are still just *FIVE BUCKS*

I thought that the arena would turn the lights off completely and wait for the next game

These people need a reward. They did all this in only 5 minutes

In my country (indonesia) we have a lot of stadium like that. In summer, its will use for football stadium, and when its rainy it will become a rice field.

Hats off to hard working crews that we tend to take for granted.

When I was a kid... I used to think these Monster Jam arenas were so much bigger from watching the commercials... This video made the place look so small!

Ive seen 3 jazz games, 3 nitro circuses and 1 monster jam. Seeing this come together is insane to me!

Videos like this make me think and realize how much energy, time and money is put into infrastructure

3:32 I can’t believe they just drop the scoreboard like that so fast. I wonder if it broke 😳

I do work like this, mostly for musicians playing in arenas, and the process is fun as hell. Especially the load out after the show. The show ends, and anywhere from 100-150 people are separated to different departments, audio, lighting, staging etc. You're so focused on your compartmentalized task, cut away to sometimes as little as 3 hours, and everything is done. There's so many people and gear, so many moving parts, it feels like controlled chaos. It's great.

I've always wondered how this was done. That's amazing, the hard work that goes into these events

Man that all just looks like a huge pain in the ass to clean up.

Jokes aside, monster jam is really underrated.

How the hell is this cost effective? Does the monster truck rally charge like $1,000 per ticket?

I always wondered how it changes so fast. They're great at what they do. Lots of hard work..

Props to the guy who just stood there for the entire time filming the Timelapse. 👍

*using faster building cheat*

That's pretty cool

Going to Monster Jam tomorrow. It was cool to see how they get the arena ready. My boys really enjoyed it.

3:31 That thing is flying!

The thing that bothered me was when they mopped the floor like 5 times over and then covered it in dirt again

It's amazing all the work that goes into a show! and where the heck do they get all that dirt? I hear it's actually some sort of clay

Super cool! I could easily watch an entire week of this.

Amazing to see how much work it takes to put on different shows. Great video thanks for sharing

Incredible job. I salute the workers for what they do

That's a weird Monster Jam layout. Never seen that one before.

Cool to see. So much work goes into these shows!

I'm more fascinated by the upper stands cleaning crew. Watching them just making sweeps really hits a satisfying feeling.

1:50 we all have that one friend that came an hour early

I feel exhausted after watching this.

They always hit me with these when I’m stoned out of my mind & I love it

I’ve worked as a temporary laborer working at the old original delta center in the 90s and what they do to the basketball floor is a amazing experience they have sections that come up and there was ice under the floor for the Utah grizzlies back in the day ,before they built their arena in west valley Utah, it was very intense labor we had a certain amount of time to get things done.

It's good to see the hard working staff being given some credit!

One of the best jobs I ever had as a teenager was at this place

I remember being one of the cleaning crew of this place. And they had me there cleaning up after a rodeo and they were pulling the seats out and such and having us clean the backs of the seats and folding them up so that we could clean the back rest and saddle of the seats and such. And I was in one of the corner spots when I took a bad step and started rolling downhill and I went down about 5 or 6 rows when I finally caught myself. I was about 4 or 3 rows from falling to my doom and I was feeling like I was going to lose my grip. So I jettisoned the spray bottle which rolled down and fell to its doom as I got myself back up. Someone was pissed off and I got yelled at and it was more or less a one sided conversation. Even though there were a few people who witnessed it and came forward and they were all told to shut the F--- up. I was threatened with being sent home without pay if anything like that happened ever again. That boss was the rough boss who wanted nothing but perfection and it was easy for him to find a bird up his seat hole. He did complain to the temp agency who sent me there and complained sorely to a point that I was about given a final written but I explained my side of the case and I guess they had other temps who they sent out there corroborate my story and they told the boss to more or less pull that bird out of his seat hole. There were about 4 more times when I was sent there after the Utah Jazz games which I had the nice and reasonable boss who heard about my mishap from her disgruntled colleague who I found was later on when I was working at a furniture manufacturing factory that he was sent to go seek out other intriguing interests which is the way they put it to me. This nice boss did hear from the ones who were cleaning up the seats after the rodeo when they were switching them back to getting ready for the Utah Jazz about what they saw and how much I was berated for destroying the spray bottle. But yeah, when it came down to it. It was either my life or that spray bottle. I decided that it was my life that was more important than a replaceable spray bottle. But that horrible boss had the idea the other way around. However that nice boss took my side in the matter and she did get my side of the explanation from me. Which was enough to make her want to watch her colleague closely in order to make him an ex colleague. She also told me how little she could stand/tolerate that jerk who was quite condescending to everyone below him and how sexist he was to her. So, she had the staffing agency contacted and told them to just put me under her from that moment on and to not put me under that jerk. She was a really sweet lady. However, she did expect you to work and earn your keep. Which in my book is quite reasonable. Also, keep in mind that this transpired back in late summer / early fall of 2005.

Wad actually pretty cool, didn't know they actually took the flooring and shit out I always thought they just put plastic sheeting or tarps over it before dumping the dirt... very neat

At first, I was like...there’s no way you can have a Monster Truck show in that small space. Then I realized how HUGE that place is!

Crazy how they can do that in only 5 minutes! They are really good at their job!

Thank you for your time in showing us this

They should show this to the players for Utah Jazz and tell them "this is what teamwork looks like".

This is so much more interesting to me than watching either a basketball game or a monster truck rally.

It's pretty awesome how fast the workers managed to change the arena from a basketball court, to a Monster Jam ralley, and back to a basketball court in less than 5 minutes.

I worked at the Cardinals Stadium in Glendale Ariz, for 3 years and experienced 12 dirt shows, it's absolute hell cleaning that dirt up, the dust literally gets everywhere and it never seems like your making any progress. Pure hell for housekeepers.

this is cool as hell also great work by those peeps and ty for the efforts

And the retired jersey/numbers still hanging strong there 🔥🔥

That's amazing

This is so cool! love time lapses

Very impressive. Made me think of the ancient Roman times almost 2,000 years ago when they would change the Colosseum over from a gladiator fight, to a wild beast hunt with hills and trees, and some say they even flooded the arena to put on naval battles with scaled down warships.

This is how corporate companies want their employees to work.

I can’t believe they did this in less than 5 minutes.

Great team work!

Im down these ast few days and watching these timelapse of transforming stadiums to different ocassional venue is just therapeutic to me. Im looking forward for the good days to come. Hopefully, they will come

Thanks. Would love to see the work plan, flow sheets, personnel assignments and time line. Great team work.

I thought the screen fell ! And then it went back up...all is good now

Absolutely fascinating.

That is some going, spectacular that they can now do this. Stadia have become Swiss Army Knives of their industry. Big shout to those designers and constructing guys for pulling this off.

1:53 looks like my little brother's toys

That is the smallest monster truck show I've ever seen.

A really good 4min spent :)

This is so soothing

They built all that just for a few monster trucks to roll across for about 10 seconds? Man....

4:03 Looks like *lego Batman on drugs*

One of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen

Imagine a timelapse of the egyptian pyraminds 😮

I like how dude sweeps and scrubs the floor, then they come in with truckloads of dirt.

This is what I do to my living room the moment my wife steps out of the house.

Beautiful!

The fact that that one set of stands didn’t fully retract is triggering something primal within me

At 1:08 the stands on the left disappeared. Then at 2:30 the lights go out and the whole thing is painted. David Copperfield is the crew supervisor

I've always wondered how they did it.

Incredible...thank you for sharing.

That was amazing. I want to go to a monster jam.

3:32 The Jumbotron fell!

It’s amazing what ants can do

I used to work traveling youth conferences. We’d come into the concrete floor of arenas and do our set up, run for 2 days and then take it all down. A bunch of teens, hard 16-18 hrs days but the traveling was definitely fun

It's so amazing.

thats cool

lmao, we look like ants in time lapse

Coolest arena i've seen

i used to do some part time work for an event center, never did monster trucks, more often it was conversions from hockey rink to basketball floor.

I wish more underdog monster trucks gets more chances to perform in bigger stadiums. Like the nrg or Mercedes stadiums

2 sports, one is full of style and calculated finesse, and the other is basketball.

Thats was mesmerising.

Man that's hectic work
