Over on Unfair Park, you can read Megan Feldman's take on opening day at the new ~~spacecraft~~ Cowboys Stadium in Arlington. But if you're looking for mine? Well, you'll have to wait until Wednesday (when my column comes out with the print edition), to see my thoughts on the drunks in the pit, the hicks up top, and what this all means for the poor widdle venues like American Airlines Center, Pizza Hut Park and Superpages.com Center.

In the meantime, you can check my Twitter feed for my live play-by-play of the weird, long day. Or, better yet, check out Patrick Michels' slideshow of the event.
