AT&T Stadium Gets Curtains for First Time

AT&T Stadium just pulled off a wild move for the Japan vs. Sweden World Cup match—installing sun-blocking curtains on the west end, defying Cowboys owner Jerry Jones’s long-standing opposition to such fixes. Known for his fiery comments about the sun’s glare ruining games and even joking about tearing down the stadium, Jones has always resisted any shade solution—even as players have publicly complained about being blinded during daylight Cowboys contests. This was the first time curtains were deployed for a major sporting event at the stadium, which oddly runs east-west, making sun glare a persistent issue. FIFA prioritized player visibility for the 6 PM kickoff, and while the fix was temporary, it could signal a future shift in how the stadium handles daylight challenges—even for NFL games.
