In thinking of landmarks around the Dallas Ft. Worth area, many things come to mind. Reunion Tower in downtown Dallas, the Ft. Worth Stockyards, the Dealy Plaza JFK site, the Las Colinas (Irving) Mustangs running through the water sculpture, many architectural unique buildings like the InfoMart and the Morton Meyerson Symphony Center. But worldwide, in Irving, the Dallas Cowboys Stadium with the hole cut in the top of it I think everyone knows about (So God can watch his favorite team play). That building which is shut down now and soon to be demolished is local history with many memorable games and concerts that took place there. The brand new Cowboys stadium costing nearly $1.3 billion located nearby in the Ft. Worth suburb of Arlington is the future. Guess what? The hole in the roof remains, although now it has a retractable cover. Able to hold two Houston Reliant Stadiums inside I have toured the building and while cavernous it has an amazing comfortable feel to it. When in the Dallas Ft. Worth area for business or pleasure please drop over to the new Cowboys Stadium which opens June 6th and take in an event with the massive Stadiumvision screen over head, the glass doors on each end, and that friendly hospitality we are known worldwide for around these parts. Remember pardner, EVERYTHING is bigger in Texas!!

Breaking News this afternoon with the Cowboys rookie mini training camp. The indoor Practice Bubble at Irving's Valley Ranch collapsed about 3:30 p.m. Saturday afternoon from a 65 mph wind gust and rain and several players or coaches were carted off by paramedics. They report 10 confirmed injuries and two walk ins to hospitals. One critical, three to four serious. There were also news reporter people there injured. They said on the news no life threatening injuries so that is good.

Gary,

I heard about the practice field collapsing after a tornado/high winds came thru.  They are saying that 4 of the cowboy staff were injured.  Sad story.

HI Gary, an incredible structure for sure!  My prayers and good wishes for those injured in the near tornado today are well and back to the stadium soon.

Gary,  I'm so sorry to hear the news, I haven't had the radio on at home or in the car today.  Blessings to everyone!    I love to see buildings going up and that's certainly an amazing one that you captured in your shots...They're gorgeous!

That is one huge structure!  I bet you could put every person from Maui in there and have room to spare.

Gosh, Gary, I can't believe the coincidence of posting these photos and then the breaking news story... prayers for safety, recovery and everything in its place soon, for the cowboy community. I can't imagine being in that big of a crowd...I imagine it must be so exciting...do you get to see the games much?

Gary,

Nice facility. Now they just have to start winning more ballgames. Are the Cowboys going to treat the Redskins to special hospitality when they first visit this new stadium?

Mara, I used to go to preseason NFL games at the old Texas Stadium, but will have to get on board with the new place. It is a great design where the bigness doesn't feel so big inside, but rather it feels very comfortable. State of the art for 2009 with all the suites, and the kitchens, and video and the audio. I think the public will really like this new venue. You'll be hearing a lot about it on TV.

Esko, I'm sure the Cowboys fans will treat the Redskins like they always do as one of their rivals.

Only in Texas does the stadium need to have a whole in the roof so God can watch down and see his favorite team play, Gary.  ;-P

Hi Gary!  I heard the news earlier about the collapse and sending prayers for the injured for a quick recovery.  Sounds like you almost had tornado winds there today.  It certainly looks like a awesome stadium, looks huge but I have been in some of those large stadiums and they really are a comfortable place.  Be sure to keep us updated on this terrible tragedy.  You really snapped some fantastic photos.

Gary - I had stopped by your post yesterday but didn't get a chance to comment.  I heard the news about the collapse at the stadium in Irving and couldn't believe how devastating the winds were and the damage that was done.  My thoughts and prayers are with all those that were injured.

The new stadium looks spectacular.  Can't wait for football season to start! :-)
