Getting to meet Tony Justice and seeing him play Freedom Hall was my favorite memory from MATS.

We just come every year  (900 mile trip to MATS), I’ve been here for many, many years.  You’ve got friends here and seeing all the nice things…this is the “Primo” show.  We come to MATS every year to see friends with the company we’ve been with, and still everybody shows up, and then you just see everything imaginable here.

“I came to MATS with my wife and a group of 50 Norwegian truckers.  We fly into Memphis, take a bus to Louisville for three days of MATS, then to Nashville for a few days and back to Memphis for the trip home to Norway. Everything is different here in the states, but my favorite part of the show must be the tractors…the Peterbilts and the Kenworths!” Hallgeir Arnesen
