SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - This weekend, Petco Park will be taken over by some high-octane action.
Monster Jam will tear up dirt and mud at the home of the San Diego Padres Saturday at 7 p.m. Tickets start at $15 for a family-friendly show packed with fast-paced action. Tickets can be purchased online or through Petco Park's box office.
