I went to Texas Stadium last year & very glad I did, although we lost to the pokes in that game. It is ugly on the outside, but very cool inside. It seems a bit surreal even after watching it on tv for years.

I have to say I will miss it. It's a part of nfl history & the greatest rivalry in sports. I miss RFK dearly as well & the atmosphere the Skins had there in better times. Just like when we left RFK, Dallas is entering into a new era of mgmt. Word is that people in Dallas are already upset about the prices going up. It will likely only get worse.

Not to mention, it's awfully difficult to get 90,000 people involved in a game. We've seen this at fedex, there are too many boxes, too many drunks, lines are long, etc. It all amounts to reducing home field advantage. That's the real plus w/the new stadium for us Skins fans. I'm glad Dallas will now be dealing w/these growing pains like we've had to, but overall places like Texas Stadium & RFK were so much better of a game experience.
