Cool shots from inside the new Dallas Cowboys Billion Dollar Stadium. The stadium is the largest domed stadium in the world, has the world’s largest column-free interior, and the largest video screen hung from 20 yard line to 20 yard line. Originally estimated to cost $650 million, the stadium’s current construction cost was $1.15 billion, making it one of the most expensive sports venues ever built.

The City of Arlington provided over $325 million (including interest) in bonds as funding
