Cotton Bowl & Texas State Fairgrounds Tour
Jim & Kathy's reason for visiting this historic venue was to assist with the Media Relations for the Heart of Dallas Bowl. Jim refer's to Bowls of this nature as Also Ran Bowls because the participating teams usually have but 8 winning games to show for their season (much like the Bowls in which the University of Arizona most usually participates.)
That having been said, this year's matchup between North Texas & The University of Nevada @ Las Vegas was a good game and the activities surrounding it were first class!
Know that,...making it to a Bowl comes with a degree of Bragging Rights & it IS a Big Deal for the schools involved whereas they get about a month of extra practice time, visibility on television which assists recruiting, lots of fun perks and they get a shot at winning a nice Trophy. These non BCS Bowls are produced for Television Events and are most always, not well attended. This Year's Heart of Dallas Bowl had about 40,000 attendees whish about 1/2 filled Cotton Bowl Stadium.
The Cotton Bowl Stadium opened in 1930 and became known as The House That Doak Built due to the immense crowds that former Southern Methodist University (SMU) running back Doak Walker drew to the stadium during his college career in the late 1940s. Originally known as Fair Park Stadium, it is located in Fair Park, site of the State Fair of Texas in Dallas, Texas, United States. Concerts or other events using a stage allow the playing field to be used for additional spectators. The Cotton Bowl was the longtime home of the annual college football post-season bowl game known as the Cotton Bowl Classic, for which the stadium is named. In January 2010, the game was moved to Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.
The Cowboys hosted the Green Bay Packers for the 1966 NFL championship at the Cotton Bowl. Artificial turf was installed in 1970 and removed in 1993 in preparation for the 1994 FIFA World Cup.
The stadium has been home to many football teams over the years, including: SMU Mustangs (NCAA), Dallas Cowboys (NFL; 1960--1971), Dallas Texans (NFL) (1952), Dallas Texans (prior to moving to Kansas City) (AFL; 1960--1962), and soccer teams, the Dallas Tornado (NASL; 1967--1968), and FC Dallas (the Dallas Burn before 2005) (Major League Soccer; 1996--2002, 2004--2005). It was also one of the nine venues used for the 1994 FIFA World Cup.
Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys also called the Cotton Bowl home for 12 seasons, from the team's formation in 1960 until 1971, when the Cowboys moved to Texas Stadium.
The Cotton Bowl has been the home of the Heart of Dallas Bowl since 2011.
It's an annual New Year's Day college football bowl game. The game was tentatively named the Dallas Football Classic prior to Ticket City being announced as the bowl game's title sponsor. The game was called the Ticket City Bowl for the first two match ups. On October 4, 2012, the name changed again to its current incarnation. The game has had bowl tie-ins with the Big 12 Conference in 2011, Conference USA in 2012, and the Big Ten Conference in both 2011 and 2012. The inaugural game saw the Texas Tech Red Raiders defeat the Northwestern Wildcats, 45--38.
Red River Rivalry
The annual college football game between the University of Oklahoma Sooners and the University of Texas at Austin Longhorns, also known before 2005 as the Red River Shootout, is played at the Cotton Bowl during the State Fair of Texas, instead of on either school's campus. Ticket sales are equally divided between the two schools, and the fans are split on the 50-yard line. The Longhorns have a record of 59-43-5 against the Sooners.

Cotton Bowl 2012 Renovations
NOW Specialties was an instrumental Subcontractor/Design Build Partner to the Success of the Design-Build Project. They provided constant leadership and teamwork approach to the project. They were definitely an A+ subcontractor to a difficult project.
—Balfour Beatty, October 2013, regarding the Cotton Bowl Renovations
NOW Specialties presents the Cotton Bowl, last renovated in 2012. The Cotton Bowl was originally named Fair Park Stadium, with a seating capacity of 46,000, although periodic retrofits have doubled that capacity to 92,100. Today it is the ninth largest football stadium in the United States.
Heery International was responsible for the 2012 renovation, which featured a dramatic stainless steel mesh design and silver metallic accent band. Cambridge Architectural provided two of their architectural mesh patterns: Midbalance and Pellican, and they were tireless in their support of our installation. NOW Specialties is grateful for the opportunity to work with Balfour Beatty Construction, the architect, and our excellent suppliers throughout the improvement of this true Dallas icon.

Starting Point: .
Dallas is a major city in the state of Texas and is the largest urban center of the fourth most populous metropolitan area in the United States. The city proper ranks ninth in the U.S. and third in Texas after Houston and San Antonio.[8][9] The city's prominence arose from its historical importance as a center for the oil and cotton industries, and its position along numerous railroad lines.

Central Dallas is anchored by Downtown, the center of the city, along with Oak Lawn and Uptown, areas characterized by dense retail, restaurants, and nightlife. Downtown Dallas has a variety of named districts, including the West End Historic District, the Arts District, the Main Street District, Farmers Market District, the City Center business district, the Convention Center District, and the Reunion District.

The city's economy is primarily based on banking, commerce, telecommunications, technology, energy, healthcare and medical research, and transportation and logistics. The city is home to the third-largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies in the nation (behind New York City and Houston).
In 2007–08, Comerica Bank and AT&T located their headquarters in Dallas. Additional Fortune 500 companies headquartered in Dallas include Energy Transfer Equity, HollyFrontier, Southwest Airlines, Tenet Healthcare, Texas Instruments, Dean Foods, Trinity Industries, and Energy Future Holdings.

In 2009 (with 14 billionaires) the city placed 6th worldwide among cities with the most billionaires.[94][95] The ranking does not even take into account the 8 billionaires who live in the neighboring city of Fort Worth.
Dallas is currently the third most popular destination for business travel in the United States, and the Dallas Convention Center is one of the largest and busiest convention centers in the country, at over 1,000,000 square feet (93,000 m2), and the world's single-largest column-free exhibit hall.

You Could Own a Rare Piece of Cowboys Turf for $40
Over a decade ago, the Dallas Cowboys left historic Texas Stadium in Irving and moved a few minutes down the road into AT&T Stadium in Arlington. At the time, the unpopular change earned criticism, but the upgrade owner Jerry Jones helped make gives America’s Team an undeniably beautiful home.
For 38 years, Texas Stadium was the epicenter of football and music memories. From deep NFL playoff runs and Super Bowls with the Cowboys to SMU’s college football dynasty to high school football championships to Garth Brooks concerts, the 65,000-seat stadium — famously known for the “hole in the roof” when construction crews abandoned putting in a retractable roof — was considered one of the best in the United States.
Then, on April 11, 2010, it was demolished by a controlled implosion.
That sad day stuck with many Cowboys fans in the DFW area. How could you strip away decades full of incredible moments in the Lone Star State just in the name a new stadium and the almighty dollar?
Well, there’s a chance to get some of those memories back.
Although the stadium no longer exists, Amazon sells the Steiner Sports Dallas Cowboys Texas Stadium Game Used Turf With Etched Glass Display Case. In other words, you could own a rare piece synthetic turf the Dallas Cowboys played on, and it only costs $40.
Think of all of the Hall of Fame players, National Football League teams, and the home pro football games that played on that turf field. You could own a piece of that artificial turf from the retractable-roof stadium. That’s pretty darn cool to maybe get of playing surface from the end zone, or from the star logo in the middle of the field at the 50-yard line of the NFC East power.
Texas is home to some incredible American football stadiums. Between Houston, Fort Worth, the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, and the University of Texas in Austin, it’s amazing to think of the rich history. Even North Texas has a nice stadium.
Yet, nothing compares to Cowboys stadium then and now, with the new stadium standing adjacent to the old Globe Life Park, the home of the Texas Rangers.
Was it worth moving from the City of Irving to Arlington for NCAA and NFL game days to be played at a bigger stadium? It might not be for the old school fans, but it's a touchdown for the football team.
This is an amazing piece of history, though, and it absolutely could be yours.
