Nice keepsake from the new stadium

[Rackat]

One of the ladies that works for me has a husband in the construction business. His company is doing some of the subcontracting on the new stadium. Knowing that I am a huge Cowboys fan, she asked him to get something for me from the new stadium. Well, this morning she brought it to me. A mason jar filled with dirt from the 50 yard line. I know it isn't much, but it's pretty cool all the same. I'll try to post a pic of it tonight.

Awesome!

When I first drove by, after they broke ground, I wanted to do the same thing. All my friends and family thought it was stupid, so I didn't do it.

The guy was probably being nagged to death by his wife, so he just scooped up some dirt from around the port-o-potty, just to appease her.

Just Kidding,

I'm just jealous.

:laugh2: I wondered why it smelled like that! He told me he got it from around the marker they use to show where mid-field is located. So, if it s from the 49 1/2, or even the 48, I'm ok with that!!

It's kitty litter.

Probably from his backyard

Probably from his backyard

Probably from the Fort Worth dump located just off HWY 121 near Halton City. :laugh2:

 

[Hostile]

That's cool.

He got it from his back yard and all his friends are laughing at you.

I'm down with the Green movement, but.....

Even if it is from his backyard, the dump, or even from his kitty litter box, it was still a cool gesture. I don't believe he would lie, but I have no proof other than the label he put on the jar. I guess in 30-40 years when another new stadium is going up, I can have my grandkids get a soil sample and do a chemical analysis. But, heck, most of you guys wouldn't be around anyway! :laugh2:

 

[Bungarian]

He lied about it. Send it to me and I will throw it away for you.

They would think it's stupid until you put it on ebay, and it sold for several thousand dollars. :laugh2:

LOL! You tell'em. If my Grandkids want to do that, it's up to them. I am going to display it with my other Cowboys memorabilia. I'm 41, so I am way passed giving a flip whether someone else thinks it is stupid or not!

My problem was I was to chicken to run out there and grab it myself. (In case I got In trouble.)

Now if I had someone with me, I could push them to the lions and run the other way.

That ebay thing does sound like a good business venture, though. I would buy one, .... maybe not for that much.
