For the fourteenth year the Auglaize County Fairgrounds will be roaring with the sound of cheers and engines revving Friday and Saturday night, as trucks hook up to other trucks in a classic showdown to see which is mightier.
The truck pulls evolved from individuals who would attend the Four-Wheel Jamboree in Lima and decided to continue the action in parking lots and streets after the event ended. Eventually it was decided to make the truck pulls official and remove them from the streets. The event grew to a two day event about six years ago and added live music the following year according to Julie Gossard, event organizer.
