The Dallas Cowboys are one of the most beloved football teams in America — setting a record of 160 sold-out games in the early 1990s. Even if you aren’t a fan of football, you can’t help but cheer the Cowboys on to victory if you happen to catch a game. Of course, the guys always enjoy watching the Cowboys cheerleaders take the field for the half-time show in their traditional blue and white uniforms and cowboy boots.

The incredible winning record that the Cowboys have set is a large part of what makes them a great team. Since their formation in 1960 the Cowboys have made it to the playoffs 30 times with 21 division championships, 10 conference championships, and five Super Bowl championships. They also had a streak of 20 consecutive winning seasons. It is no wonder the fans love to watch the Cowboys play and collect memorabilia from Dallas Cowboys watches to team jerseys.

With so much hard work and such a great record, it is only fitting that Cowboys receive some sort of compensation for their efforts. And just in time for the 2009 season they did — a brand new stadium. Cowboys Stadium, located in Arlington, Texas, costs over $1.3 billion to build and currently holds the record for the largest domed stadium in the world. With seating for up to 100,000, the Cowboys will have to work hard if they want to have sellout games here. A special feature of the Cowboy stadium is the giant t.v. screen/ scoreboard. With 2,100 in screen hanging over the center of the field, a fan at the game of the Dallas Cowboys watches as easily and comfortably as a fan at home while still enjoying the live experience.

Although the 2009 season got off to a rough start — losing their first home game in their new stadium — they ultimately pulled off a winning season and made it to the playoffs only to lose to the Minnesota Vikings. Even though they didn’t make it to the Super Bowl, you can rest assured the fans will still come and are greatly looking forward to all excitement that the 2010 season will hold.
