    Texas Stadium land was used to house construction equipment as the roads that went through there Loop 12, Texas 183, and Texas 114 had a huge interchange that was done in the summer of 2024. It really took that long. Now it essentially sits there as a vacant lot.

      I still believe Tx Dot was either engaging in or allowing illegal fracking to take place there during that operation. Remember the back-to-back earthquakes that happened there 10-11 yrs ago? Yeah, we don't get earthquakes in Texas. Then when, out of nowhere it did happen, it only hit right there at the old Texas Stadium and current Tx Dot site. I will go to my grave knowing that was not a random act of nature.
      For those who don't know Tx Dot is short for Texas Department of Transportation.

      The new Mavs owners bought the land. My theory is that because they're from Vegas they want gambling to be legal so a casino/resort can be built there.

      @@lowrider9398 I heard about that as well and they need to do a lot of bribing to get the legislature to legalize gambling. That's what Arlington is trying to do as well with their entertainment district and building those essentially resorts out there.

      Took the words right out of my mouth. I watched an Australian recap Kirk Gibson‘s home run in the 1988 World Series the other day and he paused to point out that after two strikes foul balls, no longer count as strikes, lol. I was thinking, yeah, in this country you don’t have to point that out… We already know that “mate.”😂

    I'm happy to say I attended the penultimate game at Texas Stadium which the Cowboys did win (20-8 vs. the NY Giants). I miss that place. There wasn't a bad seat in the house and it was magic at night. AT&T just doesn't have that feeling to it. That place is an oversized eyesore IMO.

      They did not play the Giants at Texas Stadium first, it was the New England Patriots on October 24th, 1971. The Cowboys won 44-21. Duane Thomas scored the 1st touchdown on a 56 yard run. My Father, Mother, Brother and I went to that game.We had season tickets to the Cowboys until my Father's Death in 1991.

    Her name was Lady Bird (at least that was her nickname that she was known by). Lady is not a title. We don’t have titles like Lady over here. There were some pronunciations that were pretty rough (Waco, Baylor, Shania). And we don’t really call games matches, that’s a soccer thing.
