For the 3 previous Cowboy SuperBowl wins I was stuck in the cold nether-lands of Colorado. I did not get the news on the parades.

Did Jerry Jones pay for those? Did the city of Dallas pay?

If by chance we win another this year, will Jerry follow Mark's lead, or will Jerry let the taxpayers take on the burden?

Where at in CO? I lived there for ten years, hated every minute of it, ten years of Hell.
 
I seriously doubt Jerry would offer to pay for it unless the city said they weren't going to have a parade because they couldn't afford it. (which would be a complete and utter embarrassment for the city of Dallas.)

While neither are penny pinchers, Mark is far more likely to shell out money without thinking twice than Jerry is.

Cuban is the first owner for any team that I've ever heard offer to pay for the parade. Truly an amazing gesture on his part.

A lot of people hate him (I dont' hate him, just dislike him a lot), but any team would be foolish not to want an owner like him. (now that he has shut his mouth) The guy has no problem spending money to win even though the Mavs operate in the red every year because of it.

I'm sure the city paid for it as they do in every city. As for cuban in tough times he stepped up and paid for the parade.

However the object of the parade is the city honoring the team not the team honoring itself

Seriously. CO is the best state, IMO. Never talked to anyone who wasn't in love with it.

Wow, you must have a pretty dismal idea of what Hell is. Colorado is an amazing place to live.

He must REALLY hate snow because CO is amazing.
 
All I remember is that the '93 parade was an absolutel cluster****. Violence, looting, hundreds of arrests, etc.

Pretty typical in many cities. I have yet to understand the logic when a cities team wins a championship and people feel the need to burn the city down. :confused:

Metro Denver gets very little snow, most of our snow is in the Mountains. Plus over 300 days of sun a year. That quote was mind boggling.
 
It's a different pace. I can take it or leave it. If you like the outdoors, Hunting/Fish, and or winter sports, Montana kicks the crap out of it every day of the year. If you like Big City Metro stuff, lots of places are more Cosmo but Denver is a good mix I suppose.
 
I wouldn't live in Denver. I can think of a hundred other places over Denver.

Now, a cabin in the mountains might be nice as a vacation home.

Yeah, I remember hearing about that on the news. I was in like 8th grade. Lots of fights.
 
I lived in Aurora. Crowded, expensive, no beaches. Too many aliens (not ET's). Warm weather for about 5 months. The water that is there (the reservoirs and rivers) never really do have time to warm up, I love summertime activities at the lake. CO is the only place that I know of where a person could die of hypothermia in July. It would take me 30 freaking minutes to go five miles, forget all that mess, I love where I live now.

I was born and raised in VA, I didnt have family in CO, thats another reason.
 
You know why Salt Lake City, Utah, does not have a professional football team?




Because Denver would want one too!!
 
I have a series question. If the Cowboys win a Superbowl , where would the parade be? Dallas or Arlington? I mean the people in Arlington helped pay for that mega stadium.
