The title is just a joke. But the scene was really like that was Super Bowl game. Every time when a starter appeared, fans at the sideline cheered aloud. They cheered for quarterback Tony Romo’s arrival, then for wide receiver Miles Austin, and they cheered even louder when rookie receiver Dez Bryant caught his first long touchdown pass.
Scene of Bryant wearing number 88 catching the pass reminded the fans of the former wearer of the number, legendary wide receiver Michael Irvin. Wearing the Number 88 Michael Irvin jersey, Irvin led the Cowboys to three Super Bowl victories, so when the team gave the number to rookie Bryant, it meant a high expectation on him. The Cowboys have not made any Super Bowl appearance since 1995, and a lot of people expect the team to reach the Super Bowl XLV following the 2010 season.
Another link between the weekend practice and the Super Bowl is that the Cowboys Stadium will hold the Super Bowl XLV game in early 2011, so practicing in the stadium just gives the team a feeling of rehearsing for the Super Bowl.

Cowboys have sold out 95 percent of their tickets
The Dallas Cowboys has sold out nearly sold out their tickets for 2009 season, according to the team spokesman Brett Daniels. They have sold 95 percent of tickets to watch games in the new Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.

As scheduled, the first game the Cowboys will play in the new stadium will be preseason match up with the Tennessee Titans, on Aug. 21st. It will be no surprise if some fans come in replica tony romo jerseys.
The retractable-roof stadium is about 180,000 square feet and has capacity of about 100,000 for football. So the fans can hang out during games on decks and patios. There are also 300 luxury suites.
