what w/ favre signing w/ the vikes,vick in philly,the oakland ordeal,& t.o. turf toe, it's been a relatively quiet preseason for the dallas cowboys. that changes friday night w/ the unveiling of the 1.2 billion dollar Dallas Cowboys Stadium. it'll be nationally telivised friday night 7pm central time on fox.
they play the titans.my 2 favorite teams

even non dallas or football fans may want to see this place...

I'm sure the Texas residents who are having to pay for the new stadium will notice how much better the team plays.

yeah,the people in arlington were not happy but i think w/ the taxdollars rolling in w/ concerts,the final 4,the superbowl,etc,etc., they won't be complaining much.except for maybe the traffic.

Keep them punches up above the belt now Bassman.

one estimate I saw said just the events they allready have scheduled through july 1st 2010 will bring in 730 million dollars to the dallas metro area, the hotel and resturant owners are loving it for sure,

[Texas-Hunter]

They are building hotels all over the DFW area getting ready for the Super Bowl and other huge events..

[blues_n_cues]

just the U2 concert alone should net a few hundred million.

[Texas-Hunter]

They just has Paul McCartney there last night 50K plus and the Rangers played the Twins at the same time at the ball park next to the stadium 33K plus..


Some of the prices are ridiculous... To park on the stadium grounds is 70 bones.. any of the other parking sites are 40-60....

[JDT]

I am pretty sure the parking at all nfl games is stupid, I am kicking around the idea of going to the dallas kc game in kc, the parking passes down there start at $51 and go to $91 if you want to be close. Sounds like a cab ride fromt he hotel will be cheaper.

[blues_n_cues]

i'd be willing to pay the parking once just to see the place.
we used to go to the astrodome a lot when it was still the 8th wonder of the world.
ah, i miss the old ranger stadium. i'll have to scan in some old pics later.
