Hello all,

Obviously i am a Commanders fan and going with my family who are 2 cowboys fan. What things are interesting to see in dallas? I am flying out to houston to see my cousin first and then we are driving up.. What is the situation for parking and the tickets? What is the stadium like and how early can you go in? What is the fan situation in terms of fighting and noise? Is it like Philthy and those sorry *** fans up there?

For those who have come up to Fedex, what are the similiarites and differences? I am trying to come down to see the new state of the art stadium later? When is the new stadium opening?

I already bought tickets behind the endzone for $95 each and there are in row 3 i believe. Right now it is a 12 start but i hear that it will defintely get pushed to 415 and not 8 because the limit for the boys

Well any help is appreciated.. Thanks again.

I went to my 1st game last week and Ill give ya what I know. Never been to FedEx so can't compare.

Parking LOOKS Terrible. It really does and while you are in it, it seems endless. At least it did for me, probably because I wanted to get in there so quick. It LOOKS a lot worse then it is. I think we spent 40 minutes trying to get out after the game. Getting in wasn't so bad either. Sucks when you are in it but looking back its not so bad. It is a decent walk from the lot we were in. walking back was a lot slower then walking in and it was actually entertaining to see people walk in this fenced off area only to get all they way to the lot and be locked in to that area. People were trying to work the gate over and some dude tore a jersey jumpin it. Sucks, looked like an Authentic.

I didn't see any fights so that was a plus I suppose. there were a few people who I wished would go to their seats at breaks so people could get around but nothing huge.

Noise wasn't anything to be concerned about.

Not sure how early you can go in because we went in around 11:00. If you want to buy anything from the Pro Shop, forget it. Shoulder to shoulder sardine packaging. If you have to, use the bathroom when there is little action. Trying to go during breaks was a lost cause.

Worst part had to be the replay system. Damn near non-existent. Be ready for tons of fancam. After every play and at every possible chance that they aren't advertising something, you get plenty of fan cam.

Thats really all I can help with. Hope that helps.

From one who is a Cowboy fan who went to a Monday nighter in Dallas which was a Cowboys vs Skins. Overall you will get some good nature ribbing needless to say their are knuckle heads at any game but they are few and far between.We where razing the skins fans in our section all game and a lot of them hand friends their that where Cowboy fans. From what I seen you will get a good nature ribbing about 99% of the time but that should be expected of any fan of other teams.

thats nothing compared to fedex, we get terrible replays, bad parking situation.. You know its better to have parking season tickets than actual game tickets for us.

I doubt they have any skins gear at your pro shop. LOL

Thanks alot
