NBA All-Star Game Disappointment
by HugeMavsFan on 2/18/10Cowboys Stadium - ArlingtonRating: 2 out of 5Well, other than getting to see Dirk, Jason Kidd and say I've been to JerryWorld, I was disappointed with the majority of the experience. I understand that the weather was out of their control, but they could have opened up sooner to accomodate all of the fans standing in line freezing (yes, I did have a coat, hat and gloves). Once inside and the activities got going, my husband and I were obviously not the type (or race) fan that they were catering to - Usher, Shakira and Alisha Keys were the live entertainment and all of the music playing ahead of time and in the breaks was rap and hip-hop. We sat in section 242, but couldn't even make it out of our section to the concession stands (where the prices were greatly inflated) or restrooms because of all of the "Party Pass" people (with attitudes and sagging pants) who were blocking every entrance and wouldn't get out of the way. Next time it comes to Dallas, I'll be watching from my living room.
