Today was a great day spending time in Dallas with my good high school friend Jeff Terry and his son Spencer. There are many people in my network of friends near Washington DC that probably don't like this the border around this photo because it's the Dallas Cowboys, the long time arch rival to the Washington Redskins. This picture was taken on our tour of the Dallas Cowboys stadium, which is the largest domed structure in the world. The 1.5 hour tour was pretty impressive and included many unique facts. Who knew that the rivalry between the Cowboys and Redskins started when the owner of the Redskins tried to block the Cowboys from being added to the league. All owners had to vote "yes", and the Redskins were the only franchise to vote "No". The Cowboys owner outsmarted the Redskins by purchasing the rights to the song "Hail to the Redskins" and he didn't allow the Redskins to use the song until they voted "yes". I learned one more fact about myself. I can no longer out run my 11 year old son.......He beat me in a
race on the field.
We also enjoyed a round of golf at TopGolf, which is a highly advanced driving range where the golf balls have a radio frequency chip inside of them so that the players try to shoot near targets and the distance to the target is recorded.
