Exactly my point. Had there been more Dallas area schools the fans would have travelled.
ATT/Cowboys Stadium in Arlington
NRG/Texans Stadium in Houston
The Alamodome in San Antonio

Interesting comments... think I stirred up a hornet's nest!
As for me? I hate the current way the UIL does it--I personally preferred it when the schools chose a neutral site. When the teams have been playing since early November in cold weather at outdoor venues then to change to a cavernous air conditioned 80,000 seat stadium just does not feel right. The kids are sweating and hot after being conditioned to colder weather, the place looks deserted even it you have a crowd of 30,000 and the locations are in no way fair to teams from the northwestern half of the state. Should Canadien have to drive 10+ hours each way to watch their team play someone who may have to drive 45 minutes? No way. I know my opinion (nor anyone else in my part of the state) does not matter to the UIL. One thing matters and one thing only... $$$

I wonder how many people that are screaming for "rotation" would be good with the Sun Bowl in that mix?
