News: PFT: Jerry Jones blames high winds for a piece of metal falling from the roof

[Reality]

“I’ll tell you right now what you had: You had heavy winds in this area during the day and apparently right about the time when we opened it as well as before the winds had compromised part of the roof, and then we opened it, well then it had that piece, the wind took it and got under it,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said after the game. “Rest assured, all of that kind of stuff is done out of the way of any fan or customer or anybody like that.”​

​

The roof had not been open for a game in more than two years — since a game against the Bears on Oct. 30, 2022 — and the team intended to have the retractable end-zone doors open for last week’s game against the Eagles, but they failed to completely open, Todd Archer of ESPN reports.​

I blame hot air, mostly coming out of Jerry's mouth

Jerrah, that is why you don't have Taco Bell on game day, especially at your age.

Mother nature is kicking Jerry's butt. If it's not the sun, it's the wind.

I was able to find a mid-construction photo of the stadium before they spruced it up with some art.

Haha.

I mean this is just soooooooooooo Cowboys right now. A roof that breaks upon opening and endzone doors that won't open correctly.

Jerry can't grasp curtains for the sun that literally took plays away, so this roof situation is just perfect.
Indicative of this team.
