Trip to Dallas
Made a trip to Dallas this weekend with the vette. Have a couple of pics to share. Inside the stadium is really unbelievable. Our seats were 10 rows from the top. The big screen is as clear as my new Sony Bravia. The building is truly an architectural and engineering master piece.
The other pic is of a retro gas station in Atoka, Okla (Between Tulsa and Dallas)
Section 416, Row 23

Cool, that pictures almost makes me dizzy.
Perhaps I'm missing something, you went to Dallas and the picture is Oklahoma painted on the grass, isn't that the Cowboy's new stadium?
Phillips 66 wow, things of the past. Time just seems to fly by these days.

Yes, it was the Big 12 Championship game with OK/Neb in the Dallas Cowboy Stadium.

Yes, I went home happy. We did not win, but that is the way it goes. I had a great time with some really great friends.

We went to Dallas for a concert back in September and toured the Stadium. DEFINITELY worth doing! They let you walk all around, on the field, in the locker rooms...even the cheerleaders locker room! And NO, they weren't in it!
One of the coolest stadiums I have ever been in.
And that gas station is VERY cool! Nice pic!

Cool pics, but the Cowboys should have invested some of that money in players they are almost as bad as our DETROIT LIONS.
