Question about Fedex Field

[Corso]

You must be the most interesting man in the world.

The biggest panderer in the world...
And much respect for it. If he had a nickel for every like... he'd have $1600.

Someone pay this man!!!

America truly is #cowboyszone.

I dare anyone to dispute it.

I think the steelers have a bigger fan base or at least a ton more attend their games.

They don't have a larger fan base, but they do have a better home attendance by homers.
Jerry cultivated a homogeneous, hodge-podge of fan availability to make ATT a basic non-factor when it comes to "home" games.

Not to hijack this thread..but is anyone familiar with heinz field? Is it safe to travel there?

This thread got me thinking of which games I want to go to and I think @ Pitt is my top choice

I've been to two games at Heinz Field, saw the Raiders and Cardinals play the Steelers. I didn't see any issues between Steelers fans and the opponents fans.

Away games also are filled with stealer fans.

Not even close - it's the towels that you see on TV. If the Cowboys had something that visual you'd notice it too.

According to official NFL attendance figures, the Cowboys led the league in away game attendance with 580,000. Pittsburgh? 535,000.

In fact, overall top five attendance leaders last year were Dallas, Giants, Green Bay, Jets, Denver.

Pittsburgh - 22. Whenever I'm arguing with a Stealer fan the look on their faces when I point show them the numbers is priceless.

Trust me I've been to games in San Diego, Tampa and Miami where the Cowboy turnout was incredible and I bet some in here could tell you about Arizona too.

P.S. We also dominate the television ratings so much so that some of the most watched network television shows over the past three years are Dallas games.

It's really crazy that Dallas can maintain what they have.

Jerry counts on it. Just wait for the day (which hopefully never comes) that the failure breaks the camels back and him and his family go into panic mode.

I don't think that'll be anytime soon. Unbeknownst, what most fair weather fans may think, thanks to Stephen Jones I should add, The FO is finally conducting business the right way. I.e. Not over paying for free agents, following their draft board, the salary cap is under control, and adding athletic players (ref. Sparq) that can play multiple positions that help to cover up deficiencies. I just hope it's not too late to help Witten and Romo to achieve the respect they deserve. They deserve to be Champions. In any case, our Boys are venturing down the right road these days.. No team is perfect and dreaded injuries ruin teams all the time, but we have talent on this team. If I was going to say it's a "make it, or break it" year for anyone personally.. It would be Garrett.

Agree with this. Have been to away games in Oak, SF, NY, WAS, SEA among others and you will have zero problems anywhere other than Rocky's city

!00% agree. Every word. Jerry, though, still lays in the underbelly of it all, like scolding Stephen on Manziel, saying he made a safe pick, but not a star pick with Martin. That man still holds the power to override on things and still has that gambler mentality, which he said as much this year.

Things are functioning at a more stable level, but that's not saying they are functioning at a top level yet.

I always wish the best for them, but there are things gnawing away relentlessly inside this team and it's not going away anytime soon.

 

[Nightman]

Asking the wrong guy. I'm never in any danger.

Bought tickets to the Cowboys/Skins game in September wanting to know if It's safe to wear Cowboys gear & how complicated is finding parking?

Saw a Boys Skins game there some years back and it was a blast! We took a cab to the game from DC and it was very convenient. Better than driving and parking on your own. I must say the pre-game tailgate scene was off the hook! I mean unlike anything I've ever seen. Huge throngs of cowboys fans partying up with Skins fans. There was one set up with a dance floor and a disco ball!?! And people were hecka groovin to dance music and the food and drink was flowing. I was frankly astonished and how awesome the energy was. That vibe carried over to the game. Even tho it's a rivalry environment the crowd is pretty controlled. Sit behind the Cowboys bench and u will see literally 10s of thousands of fellow Cowboys fans in the stands. It's a home game feel in that area.

September should be a great time of the year to visit the area as well. Weather is perfect.

I'm envious!!!! Enjoy!

We need to start a thread for any Cowboys fans possibly goin to that stealers game in Shitsburgh, me and my wife have already made plans to go. She's from Morgantown, WV so we're gonna double it up as time for her to visit family and of course us go to the game at smelly Heinz......Should get us a Cowboys Zone Tailgate goin.....


Oh and regardin the OP, Dont worry bout the stinkin Skins fans.....Me personally, the only place Id be afraid to set foot in would be Philthy.....I more than likely would never even make it past the parking lot, as soon as one sheagle fan popped off Id have to deck him, which Im sure would lead to me being jumped and wind up dead or close.....not worth it, them clowns just aint human........scum of the earth fanbase.....

Big time. I've been to a couple that there were more Cowboys fans than the home team. And they are loud.

 

[Spectre]

The truth about Skins fans- regarding the Cowboys/Skins rivalry- is they only act hostile/hateful because they're "supposed to"... in reality, Skins fans love the Cowboys unerneath it all. They're obsessed with us and pretending to dislike us. Most often, they know that without the Cowboys, they struggle to have any relevance.

 

[RoboQB]

I've seen quite a few games in RFK Stadium and FedEx Field... I've seen several altercations... never been involved in one because, well, I'm not
an easy target... just sayin'.

I will say this to the OP... if Dallas is up and it even begins to look like it's over, the home fans will leave... watched Marion Barber run out
7 minutes or so of the 4th quarter clock in the rain... halfway through that drive, I looked up and saw probably 30,000 Cowboys fans and a bunch of empty
seats.... we were shouting "Cowboys!" repeatedly across the field to each other.... "It was glorious!" (Will Ferrell voice)

I truly hope the OP gets to experience that feeling of taking over a rival stadium.
