in Texas stadium this monday! I just received a phone call from my kick *** sister in Dallas, and she and her husband scored 4 tickets to monday night's game. 45 yard line. Stoked.

Congrats man! I'll be there as well. Get a blue parking pass if you can, public parking is 10 miles from the stadium. :) I would suggest you go eat @ Humperdinks http://local.yahoo.com/info-18716742-humperdinks-rest-brewery-dallas .
They have a free shuttle service to Texas Stadium for paying patrons. Get dropped off and picked-up @ the front door! (plus they have damn good beer and women!)

Congrats Man! Enjoy it and I hope you get to see our BOYS win.
I just booked my 9th and last trip to Texas Stadium, going to the Bengals game on 10/05/2008.
You are going to love Texas Stadium.

Im going to be living the dream and getting down there for the Giants sunday nighter December 14th!

Well to me it is. There are no hotels within walking distance,

So the Econo Lodge Inn, DIRECTLY across 183, or the Budget Inn Suites 1/2 block E, where a lot of people try to park BTW, or the Days Inn less than 3/4 of a mile E of that are what? (tabs D, F & E in my referenced google map)

nothing you can walk to for food. Its surrounded by highways sure but those highways have car dealers and gas stations everywhere you look.

It's almost laughable how doggedly you stick to your statements, even when they're so blatantly wrong.

Do a google search for restaurants near Texas Stadium, you'll come up looking rather foolish.
 
Thanks for everyone's responses, you have all been a great help.

One last question. We have a Blue Lot pass, and we're coming 635W to Texas Stadium, and was wondering if anyone could provide a foolproof set of directions so I'm not wasting any time after picking up my nephews from football practice. Drove by earlier, but there were several roads that looked like they were being blocked off.

Thanks in advance!

Its my opinion. Stadiums in every city built in the era that texas stadium was all are in the middle of areas just like this.

Yes I am wrong. Poll people who go to the stadium if they think it is right in the heart of everything. How many people can those motels hold? Most people like to stay in the city and alot of people like to stay at the marriot where the team stays.

I guess you are looking for me to say your right, its right in the heartbeat of north texas because that is what you are telling me. SO fine if you believe that great.

I find it funny how all of your posts are of nothing other than to jump on people and question everything they say. Hey thats just me. You have called me numerous things and have told me to go back to new york repeatedly. Thats the way you like to act, I can act that way too, I just choose not to.

So your right. Congrats. And I will add to you what I have added to many who choose to do the insult act including one of the mods here, if you dont like me put me on ignore. Simple as that.

So, is it your "opinion", or is it fact? 'cus I've shown you the facts? It has zero to do with what I "believe".

The fact is, I'm of the "opinion" that you shoot your mouth off with half-cocked "opinions" that you state as fact. Then when you're shown otherwise, you become defensive and adopt a "why are you attacking me!!??" stance.

Please, show me where I have called you "numerous things and have told me to go back to new york repeatedly"? Or is that just your "opinion" as well?

It's almost like, if you were on the Titanic, you'd be the guy claiming "No nooo! Disregard those chunks of ice on the starboard bow. It's just an ice maker on the Lido Deck that malfunctioned".

The ratio of restaurants/hotels to Texas Stadium and fans is certainly a very important issue that you're very passionate about. Maybe there is a Zagat's forum where you can make a huge stink about this very important issue.

I stayed in a Holiday Inn express last night.

Bump. Leaving in 30 minutes.
 
Congrats! I personally like sitting on the couch better to watch the game though. We went to the Philly/Dallas game last december, granted the game sucked horribly, people stood up the whole time and I could barely see. Sucks being short!
