Dallas trip Dec 13-15

#1 Post by Snaxx » Tue Jul 29, 2008 9:31 pm

I will be making my first and only visit to the famous Texas Stadium in December when the Giants come calling. The new Cowboys stadium is under construction.

I went on the site earlier this evening and saw "Limited Single seats on sale July 29 10 AM" and started to mark my calendar for tomorrow at 10 AM, I then realized gosh July 29 was today so any tickets are sold out. I checked Ticketmaster and found limited single seats in the upper deck and decided to go for it.

Thanks to the relaxation of the Wright Amendment, I am flying on SW to Love Field.

I recommend going early. If the DART is running a bus service to and from the stadium, I highly recommend that. I've only been to two Cowboys games in the last five or six years. When Emmitt Smith broke Walter Payton's career rushing record, I took the DART bus from a park and ride station in Irving. I didn't have any issues, and I got to see the whole game (and the postgame ceremony for Emmitt).

We went another time and drove. We thought we were getting there early, but we wound up stuck in traffic trying to get into a parking lot. We finally walked into the stadium just after the second quarter started.

I noticed the 'Boys are selling parking on a season basis. I'll see if there is a DART bus. Then again, the last couple of times the G-men visited, the husband, brother (or both) of a co-worker went there so I'll get some first-hand advice there. Thanks for the info! Snaxx

hmmm... I'm thinking I need to take a road trip in Dec. and see my 'BOYS play. My friend Mel and I were talking about going to some games this year, if we can afford it. eBay, here I come. :lol:
