Description:
IRVING. Home to the Dallas Cowboys, Texas Stadium is known for its exquisite outdoor beauty and its innovative open roof design, which shelters the stands but leaves the field exposed to the elements. D.D. Lewis, a former linebacker for the Cowboys, once joked that the open roof is there "so that God can watch His team." The stadium opened in 1971, features a Texas Turf surface, and can seat over 65,000 fans. It's located at the intersection of Loop 12, Highway 114, and Highway 183. |
