OK, so mine is a bit different.
I don't live in Texas and I had never, ever been to a Cowboys game. In fact, I had only ever been to ONE NFL game before; a Broncos-Browns game at old Mile High. But when Jerry World was about to open, I promised myself that I would attend a game at Texas Stadium in it's final year and also at Cowboys Stadium (before the AT&T deal). I asked my wife, my daughter, and all of my three sons if any of them wanted to go to the games with me. All declined. None were particularly into football. Time passed and I somehow pulled off the impossible: I scored a ticket to the last Cowboys game ever at Texas Stadium and the first Regular Season game at the Deathstar. (note: I found out later that SINGLE tickets are fairly easy to get) Sadly, we lost both games, but I took lots of pictures and I made memories. I remember being amazed at seeing a Ford car lot and water features on the third floor. I cherish the memory of the look on my wife's face as I described, and showed pictures of, the "cage dancers" in the end zones at Jerry World. She had been a Pom Pom Girl (NOT a cheerleader) in High School and this was the pinnacle of that art form. Since then, my wife and youngest son have become rabid Cowboys fans. I remind them every now and then that they had a chance to be a part of history and they passed.
