The Dallas Cowboys have one of the most famous stadiums in all of North American Sports. AT&T Stadium is an incredibly built stadium that has a capacity of over 80,000.
However, the glare from the sunshine through all the windows has been a constant storyline ever since the stadium opened in 2009.
Now it’s being used to distract kickers in college football playoff games.
“This Is Hilarious” Cowboys AT&T Stadium’s Massive Glare Causes College Kicker To Miss; Fans Erupt
AT&T Stadium somehow made its way into Waco’s McLane Stadium on Saturday, even though the Dallas Cowboys weren’t playing:
The Baylor Bears football team was facing the Kansas Jayhawks to close out November, but it would be the Cowboys who would take center stage on this day.
A graphic on social media showed the jumbotron at McLane Stadium trying to distract the Kansas Jayhawks kicker.
Their jumbotron featured an image of the infamous sun glare from AT&T Stadium, which has been causing players to miss catches.
Reporter Matt Mosley posted the picture and claimed that the distraction worked.
Bears quarterback Sawyer Robertson threw for 310 yards and four touchdowns as Baylor won its sixth straight game, beating Kansas 45-17. Running back Bryson Washington ran for 192 yards on 27 carries.
NFL teams have weather-related home-field advantages, but AT&T Stadium has a glaring problem.
Jerry Jones, the owner of the Cowboys and the visionary behind AT&T Stadium’s unique design, has dismissed adding curtains to windows to keep out the sun’s glare, even though it affects his own players.
