Here's why Cowboys, 49ers fans sprinted into AT&T stadium as soon as it opened

The behemoth known as AT&T Stadium hosted an average of 93,421 attendees for Dallas Cowboys games this season, by far the highest mark in the NFL. But for Sunday's NFC Wild Card matchup between the Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers, Dallas owner Jerry Jones said he was hoping to push that number closer to 100,000 — a not-unrealistic goal given the eager-to-travel Niners fanbase and AT&T Stadium's insane standing room sections.

The standing room sections are exactly that. In exchange for cheaper, usually less sought-after tickets, you get to stay on your feet the whole contest, and you're not going to want to move around much, lest you lose your cherished spot.
