‘Watching Ants Fighting’: Dana White Explains Why Putting On UFC PPVs at Jerry Jones’ AT&T Stadium Idea Sucks

The UFC PPV fights are tremendously popular. These are not just vastly popular on television, but also the arenas are jam-packed with an energetic audience. The anticipation of the night grips everybody as they gather at arenas to watch their favorite fighters knock their contenders. The arenas hold about 19,000-20,000 attendees. Hence, it surely adds to the watching experience of the fights. Dana White, the president of UFC, understands this manifestly. Therefore, answered his interest in arranging a show at Jerry Jones’ AT&T Stadium.

In a post-fight press conference meeting, Dana White answered a few questions. One of the reporters questioned regarding the long-unanswered.

Jerry Jones’ massive stadium

At the conference, the UFC President said, “I’m not about throwing hundred thousand people in a stadium… I mean, if we do it at a Dallas, Texas stadium it’s gonna be like watching guys f*cking ants fight on this thing here… I like Arenas, I like 15 to 25,000, you know.” Dana White may not like the idea of arranging shows at the Jones AT&T Stadium, it is safe to say that the stadium’s massive seating capacity will uplift any event that takes place there.

The former name of the AT&T Stadium was Cowboys Stadium. Along with this, the stadium serves as the home of the Dallas Cowboys. The stadium can seat a population of 80,000 to 100,0000 people. It is the largest stadium in the NFL in terms of seating capacity.

On May 2009, Jerry Jones announced the official name as Cowboys Stadium, which was later changed to AT&T in July 2013. Not only is the stadium the largest in the country, the high-definition screens hanging above cost a whopping $4o million. The stadium is a true spectacle for the fans.
