Are they? Just got done watching Invincible with Mark Wahlburg. Philly fans have a reputation as being some of the worst fans. But I wonder..................they would never put up with a coach like Jason Garrett. He would have gotten run out of town years ago. He simply wouldnt last in towns like Philly or New York. But here in Dallas the guy gets a free pass. In fact, there are even fans that stick up for him and think he is a good coach. Imagine that? Is that a great fan or the worst type of fan?
Jerry is still riding on the fumes of the 90’s. Many of the fans have walked away. I’ve always argued without that early success he would have been ran out of town .
I can tell you I was one of tens of thousands who walked away from season tickets when moved to new stadium after almost 4 decades.
Local TV viewership is one of the lowest in Cowboys history and in NFL with DFW viewership only about 25-30% compared to most Home area viewership over 4o%.
If you’ve noticed many home games there are tens of thousands of opposing fans in attendance. Jerry has turned the Cowboys into a social event not just a football game. His revenue generating streams have reduced the need to win football games.
Dallas as Troy so accurately stated is “ a winners town” .Many Cowboy fans are what I call casual or wagon fans which only are interested when we’re having success while we have a core of diehards addicted because of the 2 championship eras but very frustrated while they are still our local team watch or follow because this is afterall Texas where football is king.
