Earlier this week I spent a few days in Arlington, Texas for work. My hotel was across the street from the new Dallas Cowboys stadium. While I'm not a fan of the Cowboys at all, I do enjoy seeing stadiums. I only got pictures from the outside, since I was not about to pay $15 for a tour of the inside.
For those of you who don't know about this stadium, here are a few stats.
- Seats 80,000 (option for up to 112,000 including standing room only seats)
- Largest domed stadium in the world
- Largest column-free interior
- Largest video screen (hung 20 yard line to the opposite 20 yard line), which is the largest high-definition screen in the world.
- Cost $1.8 billion
- Retractable roof (you can see the massive structures that the roof "slides" along)
- Will host the 2011 Super Bowl (beating out bids by Glendale Arizona and Indianapolis Indiana)
