The Star actually provides tours to fans like you and me who really love America*s Team 365 days out of the year! Initially starting out with OAT in 2017 we attempted to do a meetup. Only my buddy Josh Orozco showed. He actually drove me around Dallas my whole trip. Talk about “Blue Carpet” treatment. See my VLog embed below for footage.

One of the strongest families within professional sports. The Dallas Cowboys Mastermind.

Every year I plan to attend our season home opener with my 2 sons Bryce and Bryant. Possibly after the 2019 season, we can add a “Reason 6 to love” to this existing list.

Reason number one

In 2017, the Cowboys NFL draft was conducted in this new state-of-the-art “War Room.” Designed with superior technology, and a fully interactive video wall. A 40 X 30-foot room jam-packed with technology translating data on players.

The interactive video wall, made up of three rows of five 55-inch LCD narrow bezel displays, 15 total. There will be two 98-inch multi-touch displays that will be used for side-by-side comparisons of players. In addition, the Cowboys will be able to stream up to 16 different video application feeds at the same time.

The room will include six secure phones for draft-day conversations with drafted players, the NFL, other teams, etc. Strict security measures will be put in place to access the room. The Cowboys however declined to reveal specifics.

Ford Field, Star in Frisco
It has become a staple for high school football teams to play at Ford Center under The Star in Frisco.

Reason number two

The Ford Center at The Star in Frisco is a state-of-the-art, 510,000 square-foot indoor athletic facility. Shared by the Dallas Cowboys, the City of Frisco, and Frisco ISD high schools. In addition, the same field where Stephen Jones’s son John helped lead Highland Park to it’s fourth state title. Furthermore; Could you see John as the future Quarter Back of America*s Team?

Finally, the Grand Atrium: It’s beautiful Italian marble floors that are adorned with names and quotes of Dallas Cowboys players and coaches. In addition, It hangs artist Leo Villareal LED sculpture titled “Volume Frisco” (2016). Finally, this dancing LED display includes more than 19,200 white LED lights embedded in 160, 40-foot-long, stainless steel mirrored rods hanging from the ceiling. In which no sequence will ever be duplicated.

In conclusion

During my trip to the Star in Frisco, I was absolutely amazed. I highly recommend all Dallas Cowboys fans who get the opportunity to tour this facility, do it. It is rich with Dallas Cowboys history neatly invested into its physical makeup. There was so much I learned about America*s Team on the tour. Like the orange thrown at Drew Pearson during the “Hail Mary” catch. Hidden nuggets of gold scattered in their totality.
