Cowboys ticket holders keep dumping tickets.

Houston Texans fans take over Cowboys’ stadium; Romo: It felt like a road game



ARLINGTON — Another game at AT&T Stadium and another very strong showing by the visiting crowd. Houston Texans fans looked to be occupying about as much of the venue on Sunday as Saints and 49ers fans did during the other two Dallas Cowboys home games this season.

The red-clad Houston faithful were all over the upper and lower bowls, but especially noticeable in the Party Pass areas.

Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo said Sunday felt like a road game. For the first time, the Cowboys had to use a silent snap count at AT&T Stadium.

“I was a little bit surprised by the number of Houston fans,” Romo said. “Today we played on the road. We had to go to a silent count, and that was the first time I had to do that throughout the game at home.’

Has Jerry priced his fans out of his own stadium?

After including parking, a couple of beers and any other food it runs nearly $150 per person to see a game.

with the oil & gas industry but honestly we have quite an international crowd. I would expect Dallas with it's strong football tradition and tons of corporate headquarters could fill up a stadium just as easily. I wonder if Dallas residents have just had enough of him?
