Stadium: A large facility. either open-aired or domed, with fixed seats, or bleachers surrounding a "field area".

 

"Modern" Stadium: All the above and................

 

"Plaza Area and Open End Zones The stadium design incorporates two open end zones with glass retractable doors measuring 120 feet high and 180 feet wide, making them the tallest glass retractable doors in the world. These doors open in 18 minutes. The plazas outside these doors, one in each end zone - along with the three party decks in each end zone - create over 420,000 square feet of entertainment space, or approximately 10 acres. This space gives the stadium great flexibility with its capacity. These areas will be great spaces for people to gather before, during and after events to socialize and experience a unique interactive experience.

 

Suites

The new stadium will have 200 suites in eight different locations on five separate levels. The suite sections have been decentralized and positioned at different areas throughout the stadium, rather than having all suites on one level. With the new stadium, there are suites on the field-level sidelines and field-level end zones, and suites on higher levels for a different vantage point. Just 20 rows up from the field will be the Hall of Fame suites. These will be the lowest suites in the NFL in relation to the field. All of the suites will also have access to club areas. The building will have eight different clubs spread throughout the various levels.

 

Club Level

The stadium will have 15,000 Club Level seats, accessible to field-level suite patrons as well as club members. The clubs will feature large-screen monitors and multiple entertainment venues, such as restaurants and concession areas. Prior to kick-off, the Dallas Cowboys players and coaches will walk through the Field Level Sideline Club on their way to the field.

 

Video Boards

There will be eight video boards in this facility. The most unique being the four board cluster that will be suspended 110 feet directly over the center of the playing surface. The board will run from the 20-yard line to the 20-yard line -- measuring 180 feet in length and 50 feet in height - making it the largest video board installation in the world. The video center will allow fans on all levels to view the game in crisp, clear images during the game. This will create a premium on the value of the upper-level seats and make the game more exciting for all fans."

These are just a few modern amenities with the new Billion dollar facility being built for Americas team and fans to come. Most of you are probably aware of this facility and the excitement surrounding it but as a long term fan I am ecstatic. So for those of you who are not completely familiar with what is in store, this will bring you up to speed.

 

"We've been told the Statue of Liberty can fit under what will become a retractable roof, and they've now decided the retractable portion will be made of opaque material so daylight can shine through even when the roof is closed. That means from the X we stood on to the top of the stadium will be 320 feet - the length of a football field, straight up."

    Daniel Dial:I was able to attend a few events at Reliant Stadium in Houston when it first opened and have attended numerous games at Minute Maid Park in Houston as well. The new features such as retractable roofs and unique architectural designs and the new amenities like upgraded restaurants and beverage service make the game experience so more enjoyable and unique from facility to facility.
    Yvette Frazier:I m very interested in the finished product of the Cowboys new stadium. Even more interesting is how they will deal with crowd and noise control, while being in the same area as the Rangers ball park and Six Flags. Im sure this will be a state of the art facility. I can't wait for the Superbowl, to see how they handle the event management & marketing.
