Quick Question

I was told by a "Cowboy" fan that during one game at Texas Stadium they set a record for attendance. Now I seem to remember reading somewhere that Fedex Field set the record this year with somewhere in the range of 90K. Can someone refresh my memory. Small bet riding on this

To the right is the attendance... the Skins are the only ones to eclipse 90K
Your friend is wrong.... tell him so with a smile...

Capacity of FedEx field is north of 91,000. As far as I know all the games were "sold out" technically speaking, though there were clearly empty seats at games.
Perhaps Texas Stadium set a record for that particular facility. It's not uncommon for that type of thing to be reported.

Maybe he's talking about before all the new stadiums went up? They sure as hell didn't set it in NFL's modern era.

Typical cowpie fan fudging some numbers. Fuzzy math will get you in trouble.
