At Bills 2007 Monday Night Football. Romo 5 ints but they win anyway! Most obnoxious fans ever. But I abused them properly as they sat there heartbroken. It was fantastic.

I was there when Emmitt broke the record. Only game I’ve ever been to. Got lucky and picked the right one to get tickets for well in advance.

I would say the playoff game a couple years ago against the Seahawks at AT&T. It was an exciting win and on the flight back to Philadelphia there were a lot of Cowboys fans. The flight attendant gets on the speaker and goes how bout them Cowboys and the plane erupted in cheers. There's a video out there somewhere, but haven't seen it anywhere if anyone was also on that flight.

Would have loved to been at that one. Just wish the Cowboys could have pulled out the W for Emmitt.

November 20, 2005. Dallas beat the Detroit Lions 20-7 at Texas Stadium. The game itself wasn’t all that great but after it was over, I swung back to the hotel for a quick shower then headed to the American Airlines Arena for a Paul McCartney concert. I’m a huge fan of the Dallas Cowboys and the Beatles and I saw a Cowboys victory and a Paul McCartney concert on the same day. Life doesn’t get better than that.

MNF against the Giants and Bill benched Bledsoe who sucked. Romo came in and his first pass was an INT to Strahan……than for the rest of the game he was awesome. A star was born.

Cowboys 24-22 Seahawks playoffs.

The crowd let out a frenzied roar when Dak did that 3rd-and-14 run.

I was also there. Fights everywhere when Folk kicked the game winning FG - twice.

In the 90's when the cowboys 49ers rivalry was in full force. Before the game the two teams met in one end zone and there was alot of pushing and shoving going on.We won the game and the superbowl that year.......

The Clint Longley game on Thanksgiving 1974. It was the only game I ever attended at Texas Stadium.

Bengals preseason game a couple of years ago. Nosebleed seats away from the masses, literally top row. We ended up losing and the game wasn't memorable. Sounds awful, ya? What made it special was being there with my cousins, uncle, grandpa, and nephews and all of us having the opportunity to experience AT&T stadium for the first time together. Great great memory!

I have been to 5 games that were all in Texas stadium. Have yet to go to AT&T stadium yet.

My favorite game was the Thanksgiving Jason Garrett game. Cowboys were down by half-time but came roaring back in the second half. Emmitt Smith turned it up and Garrett just threw the ball deep to his receivers. Great game.
Only one and we lost so, was not too happy with that one.
It was neat that I got to see some legends in person:
Laundry, Dorsett, Randy white,, too tall Jones, walker.

A home game sometime between '93 and '95 against the Packers and Favre...my uncle took me and we sat in a box directly across from Jerrys box...maybe 45 yard line. I was coming back from walking around buying a hat...took the elevator up the the hallway where you walk around to boxes...kind of was lost and turned around and there was no other than the man himself...walking around the hallway by himself...walked up and put his hand out to shake my hand and at the same time gave me the Jerry smile and wink.

True freaking story. Dallas will miss Jerry when hes gone. Dudes a Legend round these parts. Love him or hate...dudes a Legend

I believe it. He's very approachable. My love for Jerry, the man, has come down a bit since hearing about the strippers and his child outside of his marriage. Who knows, maybe him and his wife have an open marriage. So I won't judge him too much there. I love him because for one, he can relate to his urban players, unlike Coach Pop from the Spurs. I'm from San Antonio and Spurs are my second favorite team, but former Spurs player, Stephen Jackson, said Coach Pop doesn't relate to urban players. Makes sense since Pop ran off Stephen and Kawhi Leonard. Pop asked Kawhi to cut off his cornrows when he got here but Kawhi refused stating they are an honor to his dad who was shot and killed at his carwash he owned in Compton.

Michael Irvin said Jerry is just like us. With no security, Jerry got out on Bourbon street in New Orleans several years ago, with a glass of Johnny Walker Blue (assuming) in his hand he partied with all the blue collared people. I thought that was cool. People say his "open door policy" with his players undermines the coach, but I don't think it does. I have yet to hear a player/coach/staff, or former player/coach/staff, talk bad about Jerry. He might not be a great GM, but he's a great owner and he seems to genuinely care for his players.

GO COWBOYS!!!

2005 eagles @ Texas Stadium. Bledsoe & Terry Glenn went off and eagles fans left early, their tears tasted so good!

1992, at the old Georgia Dome. When Dallas whipped Atlanta to clinch the NFCE.
Emmitt had 173 yards rushing including where he was gang tackled but somehow came out of it and ran for a TD. i think it was 43 yards.

Deion fumbled a punt return, Dallas recovered. He could not do anything on returns all night nor contain Irvin.
Deion was on the Falcons sideline throwing their benches around.

We were heading from South Florida to Ohio for Christmas. My wife’s 2 brothers live near Marietta, one brother was able to get us 2 tickets through his work.

Atlanta got off to an early start, so the fans around me were giving me a hard time but all in fun. As soon as we took the lead and in the 2nd half, they told me wow, you guys have a pretty good team.
A lady next to me was getting me beers. Her church group ran a beer stand, so as long as I had my cup she got me refills for $1.

All the fans seemed pretty cool.

I've only been to 4, all home games. Chiefs in 1992, Texans in 2006, Lions in 2006, and my favorite, last year against the Giants. We had standing room only and we didn't get there early enough and had to watch the game on one of the TVs because we couldn't see the field or see the scoreboard. So we basically drove all the way up from San Antonio to watch the game on a TV about the same as mine at home. But the atmosphere being there surrounded by around 90,000 fellow fans, including my brother in-laws, stomping a divisional foe like the Giants, made up for it all. Kicking the crap out of the Texans was cool too, especially since we were surrounded by Texan fans.

Nov 83. Cowboys beat St Louis. It was my first game. I was a Brit who did some insurance business for a company out of Fort Worth. Couple of the blokes there took me to see the Boys in Texas stadium while I was doing a business trip servicing the account. Was completely clueless to what was going on but I loved it. What was thrilling was the atmosphere. I was a fan of a soccer team renowned for noisy atmospheres but the crowd were very loud and it was just as good but different. Certainly safer.


It coincided with NFL being shown in the UK and the game getting some exposure and a small following. I moved companies not long afterwards but kept watching football. Next time i saw the boys was in 85 at Wembley against the WC Bears in a pre season game.
I managed to see a game every 1 or 2 years until COVID and I'm retired now but funds allowing I'm planning on seeing a game next year.
