RED BLOOD. WHITE SUIT. AND BLUE SKY.
For daredevils and dreamers of all ages, come rediscover the spectacle of the death-defying Evel Knievel show, now open and flying sky-high in Topeka, Kansas. Witness the incredible collection of the physics-defying bikes that launched the legend. See his iconic 1974 Mack Truck & Trailer "Big Red." Examine the star-spangled helmets (battered, and beaten and beautiful) that undoubtedly saved Evel’s uninsurable life more than once. Listen to the eye-widening, imagination-sparking, and the doesn’t-seem-possible stories that defined an American icon.

We had two very AWESOME visitors yesterday! Chad Coppess from South Dakota and his son from Minnesota took a road trip to the Museum and presented us with this RAD guitar! It’s a tribute piece and we can’t wait to get it placed up in the museum! Thank you both for visiting have fun at the races today!
We had so much fun! Cody and I both enjoyed the five hours we spent at the museum. The collection is almost overwhelming. To see and experience things that I watched on my parents' tiny black and white TV set back in the 70s was unbelievable. Thank you for the incredible day and I love knowing that the guitar I customized with an Evel Knievel paint scheme will now live with all the other memorabliia. Thank you Mike, Bruce, Amanda and the entire staff!
What a great tribute! You are certainly a man of many talents!
Our Russian friends recap their recent experience in Kansas:
"Once in the city of Topeka, every tourist is simply obliged to visit the Evel Knievel Museum. It is dedicated to the most famous stuntman in American history - Evel Knievel. He was this fearless man who risked his life almost every day, attempted more than 75 leaps. Knievel many times broke his hands, legs and ribs, but again and again returned to his favorite business. Today, it is lost to many that Knievel was the idol of several generations of American youth. His merry and extremely dangerous life was called 'the best cure for depression.' He motivated people to do great things and was not afraid of anything."

YOU CAN'T LOOK AWAY. AND HE WOULDN'T WANT YOU TO.
It doesn’t matter how many times you watch him jump, it’s always a hair-raising experience. And nothing showed his preference for showmanship over sanity like his attempt at Caesars Palace. That’s the fearless spirit we’ve rekindled for a whole new generation with the Evel Knievel Thrill Show Museum.
