PICKAWAY COUNTY, Ohio – The Samson Monster Truck Facility is opening its doors once again for its annual Fall Fest on Saturday, October 11, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event is free and offers family-friendly activities, tours, and hands-on experiences with one of Ohio’s most famous motorsport innovators.
The facility, located at 26886 Morris Salem Road in Circleville, is home to Dan Patrick, a legendary figure in the monster truck world. Patrick is credited with creating the “Patrick Chassis”, the foundational framework for many of today’s competitive monster trucks, including Bigfoot, Grave Digger, and Bounty Hunter.
Patrick’s career began at age 17 with tractor pulls before moving on to funny car competitions. In 1988, he became the owner and CEO of Samson 2, solidifying his reputation as one of the most respected fabricators in the industry.
Visitors to the Fall Fest can enjoy:
- Monster truck rides
- Facility and showroom tours
- Kids Zone and bounce house
- Car show featuring cars, trucks, and motorcycles
- Exclusive Samson merchandise, including 2025 Hot Wheels die-cast trucks
Registration for cars, trucks, motorcycles, and vendors is still open. Admission and parking are free, and the event will go on rain or shine.
