Jerry Jones Does Not Care About The Safety Of The Cowboys Fans

If there is one thing that all of America outside of Dallas, Texas can agree on, it is this: Jerry Jones is one of, if not the biggest douche bags in all of sports.

Say hi to Mike. Mike was at the grand opening of JerryLand on Sunday night and was not happy with his experience in the party pass area (a.k.a. the portion of the staduim that is standing room only). Mike wrote to the Cowboys expressing his disapproval and requested a refund. This is the response that Mike got back from the Dallas Cowboys. Via The Blue Star Blog

I sincerely apologize for the problematic experience you and your family endured on Sunday. In order to help make the situation right, we can offer you a refund or comp party passes to another game this season.

If you would like a refund, Ticketmaster will issue the refund for your party pass purchase. Please contact them at 1-800-653-8000. We have communicated with Ticketmaster, and they are aware of the refund process for this event.

If it helps at all, the only reason so many party passes were sold for Sunday's game was to break the attendance record. I can assure you that only 1/3 of that amount of party passes will be sold for each game going forward...10,000 max instead of 30,000. That was a one-time deal for the grand opening of the stadium.
Why am I not surprised?

Not only does selling so many tickets like that create for unpleasant experiecnes, but it can also be a real danger especially when you are dealing with standing room only. It only takes one big Cowboys play for a bunch of drunken idiots in that SRO section to go nuts and start something that could result in the fatality of an innocent fan (although one does have to question how innocent they really are if they like the Cowboys of all teams).

The Cowboys are denying that they put that last paragraph in the letter. I don't know if that means that they are denying that there was not 30,000 there or if they are denying that every other game will have 10,000 there. Whatever it is, it is supreme idiocy at its very finest and I hope that one day Ol' Plastic Face will get what is coming to him (i.e. a reality check).

  2. Jerry Jones a douchebag? Can you look at this picture and see anything but a man of integrity, vision and high character? No. Not at all. Because you can't look at that pic for longer than 1/100th of a second before turning to stone.
