Full Version: Where is the American flag in Cowboys Stadium?

A small roar is going up in Dallas right now. Cowboys fans are wondering where the American flag is hanging at Cowboys Stadium. They can't find it. The color guard comes out for the national anthem, and a picture of a flag is put up on the mega-super-jumbotron, but there is not a tangible flag to be found. In one event, the national anthem was played, but there was not a flag to be found, and they forgot toe video of the flag on the screens. So people were trying to figure out where the flag was. Again, there is no flag in Cowboys Stadium.

If Jones wants to call the Cowboys "America's Team" he needs to back it up.

If you are going to the next home game, and there is not a flag up yet. I suggest wearing a "Where is the flag, Jerry?" T-shirt. Make one, buy one, have one made, whatever..

The pot is boiling on this one. It may seem a small thing to some, but folks are upset as well they should be.

Have a good one,

Lovin

Hey I appreciate you getting the flag back up. Two of my sons are currently fighting for it's freedom.

I'm glad to hear that they're getting a flag. Digital age or not there are three things in this world that can't be substituted, a human body, the Holy Bible, and the American flag.

Article in Dallas Morning News Blog on Novenber 20th where Jerry Jones visited 105.3 in Dallas and said there will be no flags or banners hung inside the stadium. The occasional color guard....etc along with screen only. He will not hang the 5 Superbowl banners either. Where is the justice?

Perhaps this is part of the CHANGE that took place on Jan. 20, 2009.

I agree 100%. Why would they not have a flag up before the stadium was even opened to the public? bangin.gif

It would say it does matter, since no, they don't say the same thing. Compare today's King James version to the Codex Sinaiticus.

Besides, which Bible you prefer would probably depend on which branch of Christianity you favor, which tend to have sweeping differences from each other.
