Texas Stadium is located in Irving, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. After over 30 years of existence, Texas Stadium is still one of the NFL's best stadiums, and one of the most unique stadiums in the league.The National Football League's Dallas Cowboys use Texas Stadium as their home field. The stadium has seating capacity of 65,675. The stadium was named after its location, Texas Stadium. The Dallas Cowboys played their first game at Texas Stadium on October 24, 1971.
The Texas stadium was built to replace the aging Cotton Bowl.The construction of the stadium began in the late 1960's. This superb stadium was opened on October 24, 1971, at a cost of $35 million.
Texas Stadium became one of the NFL's most unique stadiums upon opening. The stadium is partially domed. A hole is in the center of the roof which allows fans to stay dry but leaves the field open to the elements outside. Over 65,000 blue seats in two tiers extend around the gridiron. Two DiamondVision scoreboard/video-boards are located inside Texas Stadium.
Neutral-site college football games are held at this stadium. It was formerly home to the SMU Mustangs before the NCAA shut down its football program in 1987-88. SMU has since built its own on-campus stadium.
Texas Stadium is a major venue for high school football in November and December. High school football tripleheaders are common at the stadium. Two Dallas-area high schools, Plano Senior High School and Highland Park High School have been using the Texas stadium temporarily for playing their games. Plano Senior High School used this venue in 1979 after its home stadium was damaged by a prank gone awry, and Highland Park High School while a new stadium on campus was being built.Texas Stadium hosted The 2001 Big 12 conference championship game as well as the 1973 Pro Bowl.
In addition to football, the stadium has the honor of hosting concerts, wrestling events, and religious gatherings such as Promise Keepers and Billy Graham crusades. The first event held at Texas Stadium was Graham crusade.
The two "bridges" that are connected to one of the support arms are called "Garth Bars". They were installed for a Garth Brooks concert so he could fly above the crowd and have remained ever since. The playing surface installed in 1971 officially was labeled Texas Turf, and was a form of AstroTurf. It was replaced by a somewhat softer surface called RealGrass in the middle of the 2002 season.
The famed roof of the stadium was repainted in the summer of 2006 by the City of Irving. Since the opening of Texas Stadium, It was the first time the famed roof was repainted. The roof is structurally independent from the stadium it covers. As a tribute to the original Texas Stadium, the new stadium, which is a retractable roof system, will also include a setting that mimics the hole in the roof.
After the 2008 NFL season, The Cowboys will leave Texas Stadium for a new. The funding for a new stadium for the team was passed in November 2004.The unnamed new stadium will open for the 2009 NFL season and it will be partially funded by taxpayers in Arlington, Texas. The fate of Texas Stadium after the Cowboys' departure remains uncertain.
