It’s now official Cowboys fans!
Our brand spanking new stadium was christened during a special ceremony yesterday attended by a small throng of special dignitaries.
Hundreds gathered for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Dallas Cowboys Stadium on Wednesday including Jerry Jones, Wade Phillips and other members of the Dallas Cowboys coaching staff.
Plenty of former Cowboys were also on hand including Bob Lilly, Drew Pearson, Chuck Howley, Lee Roy Jordan, Mel Renfro, Rayfield Wright, and Cliff Harris. Even the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders were there for the festivities.
There were plenty of fans too of course, and what would a ceremony be without a bunch of city officials and politicians getting their faces on camera.
All who were there, watched as the glass retractable end zone doors opened for the first time in an awe inspiring moment.
After 49 seasons, the Cowboys will now take possession of their new home.
The $1.1 billion dollar, state-of-the-art stadium is now the new standard bearer for the ultimate sports mecca in the world.
Here is a video I found on You Tube which shows some of the fanfare and celebration.
But if you want to see the official 30 minute video which captures the whole event from start to finish, just click on this link.












How exciting! Just one step closer! GO COWBOYS!
