The Cowboys Football Palace Appears To Be A Little Too Bright and Shiny
Since opening its doors in 2009, AT&T Stadium is widely considered to be among the most spectacular sports venues ever constructed. The Dallas Cowboys’ Arlington, Texas home field has everything a player or fan could ever ask for, and then some.
Well, unless you ask Cowboys wide receivers.
Due to sun considerations, most NFL stadiums are built so that the field goes north to south. Jerry Jones’ palace lines up the other way, with the field placed in a west to east manner, allowing for bright rays of sun to shine through behind the end zone windows.
Though a simple curtain would likely eliminate this issue, Jones refuses to install any.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram goes into further detail regarding this glary situation.
