I promised these pics weeks ago but have just now gotten around to uploading them. Sorry for the delay. I have pics taken from the tour as well as the soccer game that took place not too long ago. Keep in mind that no pic or video does this thing justice. It is something that you have to see for yourself.

Here are some from the soccer game:

A few from the tour:

The Main Bowl of the Stadium. According to the tour guide you could place the statue of liberty on the fifty yard line and her torch would fit inside the roof.

These Pics here are taken from the areas that are going to be designated for those with party passes.

Ahh the luxury boxes. THe place we'd all love to watch a game but are all too poor to afford. According to the tour guide to secure one of these boxes you must buy season tickets for every seat in the box, then rent out the box itself, then pay your wait staff and your clean up staff. So if you want one of these you're gonna have to break out the cash. We asked to see Jerry Jones' Private box but apparantly he has a guard posted outside the door 24/7 365. What a party pooper.

This is one of the private clubs that are reserved for certain ticket holders. Notice how the lights are in the shape of footballs. Football shapes was a big theme throughout the stadium.

THis is the tunnel that our players will be running out of at the start of the game and second half. Our stadium is unique in the NFL in that the players will run out from the fifty yard line instead of from the end zones. This is also a private club that high priced ticket holders can stay in. The players will run right by them on their way to the field.

After the tour we went to the pro shop to do a little shopping where we were visited by a suprise guest.

I may upload a few more in the future. But that's all for now.

Very nice, thanks. The last few pix reminded me of Phantom of the Opera.

Nice pictures!

But, man, that big screen during a soccer game? Who wants to watch soccer players flopping around like a fish on the big screen?!!

It's really cool driving by the stadium at night and being able to see the video boards lit up inside the stadium.

How about the video boards on the outside? Do they ever light those up?

The outside wasn't lit up Tuesday or Wednesday night when I was up in Arlington.

Take the tour of the new stadium if you haven't, it will make you realize just how much of a dump Texas Stadium is.

That looks like a mini Ring of Honor next to Jerry Jones. Has anyone heard anything about the actual Ring yet?

I know this is a minority opinion, but Jerry looks good in those pictures.

Thanks for posting, DCRule.

Wow...I did not even notice that! I guess I was checking out Jerra's white coat!

Great pics man, thanks for sharing.

Jerry looks like he has been hanging out with Hugh Hefner or something with that jacket.

They've got a section in the main bowl that the tour guide said would be used for the ring of honor. That mini ring of honor behind Jerry is on the wall in the pro shop. There's a stairway from the pro shop that leads into the main bowl of the stadium and that's what Jerry is standing on.

They didn't have the outside boards up during the soccer game so I assume they're saving those for when a real sport is played in that stadium.

And yeah, the 70s called and want Jerry's suit back. By the way, in real life, he looks like a plastic action figure. It actually took me a couple seconds to realize he was real.

Hmm, maybe they'll install animatronic Jerrys near all of the entrances.

I thought I heard they did away with that idea because of the glare on the screens...??:confused:
