Why Do People Go Mudding? 8 Reasons to Get Your Mud On

Why Do People Go Mudding?

Here’s Our Top 8 Reasons To Go Mudding:

1. Get in touch with your inner child — dig deep, he or she is still there!
2. Forget good clean fun — you’ve never had so much fun getting dirty with your friends.
   
3. Mud buddy — everyone needs one, so be one! Encourage your friend to go deep — you’ll be there for them when they get stuck.
   
4. Prove your ride — you paid (are paying) big bucks for your 4×4, SUV, ATV, or UTV so prove it will get out of the hole (without a strap).
   
5. Show your dirty side — mud bogging photos are the only dirty photos you can post on Facebook without judgement!
   
6. Family bonding — the family that gets muddy together sticks together.
   
7. Glow sticks — when was the last time you played in the mud AND in the dark?
   
8. Get in the backseat — sleep in the car, bring your tent, RV, or stay in a cabin for the weekend.

What to Bring?

• Friends and family of all ages!
• A cooler full of snacks and food – some venues sell snacks and meals.
• A cooler full of beverages – check rules before you go, most venues allow adult beverages for those of age.
• Your vehicle or ATV to get muddy – no worries if you don’t have one as you can just watch or rent one at some locations.
• Towels and a change of clothes and shoes – most venues have hose down stations and showers.
• Straps/rope to tie down your cooler and mudding gear or to use to pull out your new mud buddy.
