Although the Dallas Cowboys are 19 years removed from their last Super Bowl appearance and will be 1,500 miles away from today's festivities, the home of the most valued football team in the NFL (per Forbes) still echoes with the sounds of a recent Super Bowl past (XLV in 2010 when Green Bay defeated Pittsburgh).
Recently named AT&T Stadium, but more commonly called Cowboys' Stadium, the domed behemoth that rises 300 feet out of the Dallas suburb of Arlington was built at a cost of $1.15 billion and opened in 2009. The stadium features a retractable roof and seats 80,000 for football with expandable standing room that brings the capacity to 105,000. Need more facts about the home of "America's Team"? The stadium uses more electricity on game days than the entire country of Liberia.
The Anna / Dr Pepper Can was warmly received at the stadium as the most original soft drink ever is prominently advertised inside. In the photo at left note the Dr Pepper logo above the goal post. This is the site of the stadium's unique Dr Pepper StarBar, a 17,000 square foot square foot deck that accommodates fans on game days and private parties and events. After Cowboy touchdowns, all eyes turn to the StarBar that explodes with flashes of light and color highlighted by the 30-foot Dr Pepper logo.
