There were a lot of upset folks regarding the Party Pass among the 105,121 fans in attendance Sunday at Cowboys Stadium. Some were upset they couldn't see the field. Some were upset they couldn't get inside the stadium. Some went home.
The Cowboys sold roughly 30,000 Party Passes for the Giants game and are working with Arlington about what the right number is.
Jerry Jones hinted that some of the issues had to do with unfamiliarity with the stadium by everybody involved in terms of where to go and how to enter the stadium.
"When we can we want the outside feel," Jones said. "We thought we were right there at that temperature and felt that it was worth that. As far as the number of people that were in there, we had had a soccer game and we had approximately 10,000 people standing on our decks and our patios for our soccer game with the Gold Cup and that didn't touch uncomfortableness at all.We really thought that number would work ... In the future we'll look at it. The number's somewhere between at a very low point at about 10,000 and somewhere between that 30. We'll just see how that goes. I know certainly some of those fans with those Party Passes were frustrated but we had large numbers of them excited and right into it just as it was designed to do."
