Everything Is Always Bigger In Texas
An article by Joe D.
We’ve all heard that saying before, haven’t we?
Well it looks like Jerry Jones is going to put some bite into that old saying according to this story in the Star-Telegram this morning.
When fans walk into the new Dallas Cowboys stadium for the first time, one word will pop into their mind when they see the world’s largest center-hung scoreboard: Massive.
Stretching roughly from 20-yard line to 20-yard line and suspended 90 feet above the field, the Mitsubishi Diamond Vision scoreboards — one facing each sideline — are inescapable.
“It cost $40 million to build Texas Stadium,” the Cowboys’ 42-year-old former home in Irving, said Stephen Jones, Dallas Cowboys executive vice president.
At the new Arlington stadium, “the scoreboards alone cost more than $40 million,” Jones told an audience at the University of Texas at Arlington’s Business Week dinner last month.
Can you imagine what it’s going to be like when you set foot in that new stadium for the first time? This place is shaping up to be one of the Seven Wonders of the World, possibly knocking out the The Great Pyramid of Gaza or maybe the Colossus of Rhodes.
You can se the sheer magnitude of the scoreboard in the above pictue as it completely overwhelms everything else in its path.
This place has got me so excited… It’s truly going to be quite a sight to behold.
This stadium is purely amazing.

How freaking awesome! I’m very proud that’s our new home. It will be even better when we play the Super Bowl there on MY BIRTHDAY in 2011!
