Rynie does a good job of that for home games, I wish more of you would do that for away games as well.
I posted a thread just like this. ask any questions in it you want and I'll try to answer.

On our game winning field goal I couldn't see the ball in flight (grainy streaming internet video) but was expecting a miss when I saw all of the cheering fans from behind the goal posts.....only to soon discover that the kick was good and all of the cheering was from the large amount of Cowboys fans in Cincy.

A rags to riches moment indeed!

Some random and non informative observations from the game:

Cowboys fans everywhere. Pretty sure there were more Bengals fans but not by much. Almost everyone around me was Cowboys fans.

Lots of Cowboys fans crowding down near the sidelines before the game. I was upstairs walking around. Heard a roaring chorus of "boos". Looked out on the field, pretty sure it was all the 'boys fans booing the Bengals coming out for pregame warmups.

As far as the game, I'm not trained but...

Though there times the oline blocked in pass protection, when they don't it looked bad. It may look worse live than on TV, I don't know.

Dwayne Harris seemed to fall down. A lot.

When Romo got bent over backwards, I was scared his knee was gonna be blown.

Carrs pick was a beautiful thing. Could see him read and break on it. Much better than TV.

(Sorry, the pics are kinda of small)

Couple before the game pics:



Opening kickoff:

Beginning of the 2nd quarter

Was that the Bengals largest crowd of the year???
I would think the Steeler home game would draw big also.

Why I am saying that is last time in Oakland with Cowboys - stadium full.
Two weeks ago stadium in Oakland at least 1/3 empty.

Opposing owners must like to see us come to town.

Hey you guys thanks to all! I love that stuff and the pics were great. Does anybody think if we waved blue & white towels (I don't want us to) that we would crush the perception of the Steelers? Their gold really stands out on TV and I think it gets skewed.

Doesn't matter, we have led the league in attendance home and away the last three years. Imagine if we get back to a Super Bowl.

Thanks again!

I looked up the attendance for yesterdays game and they were 1900 away from selling out according to the numbers. I don't remember them mentioning attendance yesterday though.

I was there too! It was amazing how many and how loud the Dallas Fans were.

28 years ago, almost to the day....Cowboys played at Cincy...my first Dallas game in person AND I got to meet Tom Landry.

Great memories!

When you want to win a game, you have to teach. When you lose a game, you have to learn.

I don't know if they sold out or not, but there were a lot of empty seats.
These empty seats never filled up.

Believe those are all the club seats. Maybe they were all in club level lounges or something.

I sat in the Upper Deck. My section was probably 80% Cowboys fans. I sat next to a season ticket holder since 1999. He said he was about the last one left. All the Bengal fans in that section had left. He was dressed as Santa. He threw out candy canes during one point of the game. Pretty nice guy.

Yesterday was only my 2nd Dallas game and it was so worth the trip down. I loved how we started chanting defense and let's go cowboys and it made it's way around that it was so loud. Rob Ryan could hear us and he and a few of the players were waving us on. It was just awesome.

We were in 335 and there were a lot of Dallas fans in our section too. There were cinci fans sitting directly in front of me and even one that was talking trash about Romo to us but otherwise it was all Dallas fans.

I was in 338. We noticed the Cowboy players on the field acknowledging the Cowboy chants too.

Hmmmmmm....I'm not convinced you were there. I need more evidence.
