Jerry's Palace

Here are some more highlights from my tour of Cowboys Stadium.....I loved this HUGE sign in the stadium.....

Around the Metroplex, the huge video screen is known as "Jerry's Ego-tron" (Jerry Jones is the owner of the Cowboys).

This is the largest retractable roof in the world - and it only takes 8 minutes to open it!

This is what the tour guide referred to as "Jerry's Perch" - where he watches the game from.

Here is Jerry's view from his 'perch' - right on the 50-yard line....


And this is the private elevator that opens up right inside his suite ("perch"). The ONLY people who are allowed to use it are Jerry, his family, private guests he escorts up there, and some security. That's IT. The elevator goes to the President's suite, Jerry's "perch" and then the executive offices or something. WOW.

This is the area right outside Jerry's "perch" - pretty swanky club area!

And this is the ceiling in that area - shaped and lit like a big football - VERY COOL.

I liked this - it was the sign for one of the premier club/bars in the stadium.

And keeping with tradition from the old Texas Stadium, Troy Aikmans broadcast booth is located on the 50-yard line, right below where his name is listed on the Ring of Honor (and right across the stadium from Jerry Jones' "perch".
