VIDEO: Lap Dance at Cowboys Game far more interesting than game itself
(Image via Deadspin)
This video of an unidentified super-cutie giving her boyfriend a lap dance at last Sunday’s Cowboys/Jags game has been making the rounds for the past few days … and who are we to buck the trend?!?
The clip starts off with the drunken couple making out at Cowboys Stadium and quickly progresses until the young lady starts to give everyone in her section a show. But sadly, security breaks it up as soon before we get to see anything good things get too out of hand.
And clearly, if you’re a fan of the 1-6 Cowboys suffering through the season, this sort of thing is WAY more interesting than following the action on the field:

Eli Manning Tagged the Visitors’ Locker Room at Cowboys Stadium
NBCDFW.com posted this photo of what may or may not be Eli Manning’s real signature, on what may or may not be a concrete column in the visitors’ locker room at the brand new Cowboys Stadium.
So … yeah. Pretty definitive, right? Here’s the picture. See for yourself:

The reader who submitted the photo had this to say:
“See the picture of a concrete column in the visitor locker room in the new Cowboys stadium,” the NBCDFW.com user wrote. “I heard the locker room was spat on and had many used jock straps hanging from the mirrors and other places too. What class.”
Wait. Saliva and jock straps??? In an NFL locker room?!? I’m shocked. Shocked I say. Wait until Goodell gets a load of this.
It sure looks a lot like Manning’s signature, and if the story is true, this could easily become a new tradition at Jerry World. Just imagine visiting players – drunk with victory – tagging the locker room with all manner of lewd bathroom graffiti. Over the years, the walls will become overrun with braggadocios claims, juvenile sketches and bawdy limericks. Jerry will of course hire a small village to clean the walls … or just build a new stadium. Whichever’s easiest.

Cowboys Admit to “Party Pass” Scam
The above video (via Deadspin) gives one fan’s perspective of Sunday night’s Cowboys/Giants game from one of these Party Pass areas at Cowboys Stadium that Jerry Jones seemed so proud of. Looks like a great time, doesn’t it? (hint: it wasn’t)
It was by wildly overselling these standing room only tickets that Jerry Jones – who clearly prizes his ego over the fan experience – was able to break the single-game attendance record for opening night of his new monument to phallic compensation. The fact that Jones used his ticket-buying fans to make history should come as no shock to anyone. However, in a surprising follow-up, the Cowboys have now publicly admitted to their scam.
NBCDFW.com reports on one fan – Mike – who wrote an angrily-worded letter to the Cowboys organization complaining about his experience. He received a half-hearted apology, which included an offer for a refund (or more party passes!). But the Cowboys went on to assure Mike that this blatant mistreatment of their patrons was just a “one-time deal”:
If it helps at all, the only reason so many party passes were sold for Sunday’s game was to break the attendance record. I can assure you that only 1/3 of that amount of party passes will be sold for each game going forward…10,000 max instead of 30,000. That was a one-time deal for the grand opening of the stadium.
Sincerely, Dallas Cowboys Football Club
So yeah, the Cowboys are now denying that they wrote the bolded part of the letter (Mike stands by his story). But either way, they still admit to selling THREE TIMES the capacity of the Party Pass areas, specifically for opening night! You’d think that would mean they’d issue a refund to anyone who had a bad experience there, right?

Of course not. Ticketmaster is no longer refunding party passes at this time. Way to go, Jerry. Keep building that resume for your own special place in hell.

COWBOYS STADIUM (((FAIL)))
In the much-awaited opener at super-luxurious Cowboys Stadium, a reassuring performance by (post-Jessica) Tony Romo (18-24, 192 yards) was drowned out by the biggest player on–or above–the field.
In the middle of the third quarter, Titans backup punter A.J. Trapasso’s high-arching kick nailed the stadium’s massive 160′ x 90′ HD jumbotron, resulting in a do-over.
Earlier in the game, the FOX broadcast replayed feed of Titans starting punter Craig Hentrich repeatedly dinging the scoreboard during warmups–beguiling Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. Hentrich told ESPN: “I hit it probably a dozen times in pregame… some of the guys in the league wouldn’t be able to punt here if it’s not raised, they’d just be non-stop hitting it. I don’t know what the people were thinking. I guess they should have tested things out before they put that thing in place. It’ll have to be raised.”
Jerry Jones, however, isn’t planning to change a thing. According to ESPN, “Jones implied that having the video board in play provided an ‘entertainment value’ and that both teams would have to deal with it.”
Really? Are we at the stage where money-hungry owners have the right to build playing-field obstacles for entertainment dollars, interrupt the game, and tell everyone to “deal with it”?
Yet another reason to love the Dallas Cowboys.
