Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, TX made a resurgence this week as it once again took number one in TicketNews’s exclusive venues rankings for the week ending Sunday, August 16. The Stadium, home to the popular Dallas Cowboys, (at number three in this week’s Top Sports Events rankings), is scheduled also to host a game between the Texas Longhorns (at number five in Top Sports this week) and the North Carolina Tar Heels in December. Surely boosting the numbers this week is an appearance by Paul McCartney set for later this week and an upcoming date for U2 (at number four in TicketNews’s Top Concert Events) in October. Dallas Cowboys Stadium finished the week with a power score of 3.14.
