So at 3 million sq. ft., the Cowboys' new home in Arlington, Texas, is three times the size of Texas Stadium, where they used to play. At a cost of $1.2 billion, it's also the priciest stadium in the NFL - but only until next year, when the $1.6 billion Jets-Giants stadium opens in East Rutherford...
