Last Sunday, we went to the Cowboys v. Titans game. At the Texans game a few weeks ago, we met a guy in the parking lot after the game and gave him and his friends a few of our beers. After chatting for a bit, we found out he worked in the Cowboys ticket office! He offered to get us into the Cowboys tunnel the next time we were at the stadium, as a thank you for the beers. I put his number in my phone, and only half expected him to respond to my text message on Sunday. Well, he did respond and he followed through on his promise and got us into the tunnel!! It was so cool! Definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity for us, since the only people allowed in the tunnel are those who are willing to pay an arm and a leg for their seat license. We were only willing to pay an arm for ours. :)
We saw the players run through the tunnel from the locker room to the field (there's Tony!)...
And then Jerry Jones walked through and even stopped to chat and sign some autographs!
David, with his long arms, was able to get his ticket stub out there and Jerry signed it!! Guess he didn't notice the small size of the ticket (if you really belong in the tunnel, your ticket is about twice the size of ours)!
The tunnel is actually part of a bar that's on field level. There's a little "patio" area where you can stand along the railing and you're basically *THISCLOSE* to the players. It was pretty neat! The only thing that sucked is that since you're pretty much on the field, we weren't able to see much. But we were about 10 feet from the Cowboys bench!
When the players are being introduced, they have a Cowboys star that shoots out fire, and boy was it HOT!!
We also got to see where the post-game interviews are held.
Just before the end of the second quarter, we made our way up a level to the other bar. The view of the field was much better from here!
The Cowboys didn't win (we were 0-2 on games for the weekend...boo), but we had fun watching the game from where the aristocracy sits! haha!
