I'm not sure why Arlington gets so much hate here. Yeah, it's a suburb and somewhat dull, but beyond that...it's a great place for stadiums as far as traffic flow. It's not THAT far from Dallas or Fort Worth. FW city proper has a top 15-20 population in the US. The Rangers would be stupid to not take advantage of that by building a stadium half way in between the cities.

The traffic flow is fricking terrible. The location isn't that huge of a problem, though a baseball stadium should probably be downtown, but the traffic flow is HORRIBLE. There is always a traffic jam on the Bush trying to get to the game from north Dallas, where the majority of the people in DFW live, meaning a 20-minute drive without traffic usually takes one and half hours on game night. And the ground streets in Arlington by the stadium have terrible traffic flow, leading to huge traffic delays getting out of the games.
Traffic is so bad for Cowboys games that it's not worth going at all. I have never been to a stadium with worse post-game traffic than the two in Arlington. It's horrific.
