Dallas Tigers - DART shuttle to Cowboy Stadium?

Did DART run shuttle service to Cowboy Stadium for the Cotton Bowl?
Thinking of staying downtown for the LSU vs Oregon game, but don't want to drive to and from the game.

I dont think it did, if it did im an idiot. I would suggest staying downtown anyways, depending on your party scene and food likings.

When we lived in Dallas about 15 years ago, they used to run a shuttle to Cowboy games and Rangers games from several different locations. Was very convenient.

DART doesn't run into Arlington... at least not yet. It goes up through the Mid-Cities (near the Airport) instead. Google "Trinity Rail Express".

I assume they'll have it again for the Oregon game.

I do not think they did....
Dallas = Dallas
Arlington is the enemy...
at least in the eyes of Dallas Politicians.
They are each too busy with their own agenda.
I moved here in 80, Dallas was a great town, FW was nothing...Arlington barely existed.
While the Big D politicians played games, Arlington and FW have Dallas behind.

Let's make sure we get our story straight on Arlington.
1. DART doesn't go to Jerryworld. The TRE (Trinity Railway Express), which is connected to the DART line, goes to South Irving and the mid-cities but the closest stops to Jerryworld are 10+ miles.
2. Arlington is the largest city in the country without any form of public transportation (375K population). The city leaders of Arlington do not want the "rif-raf" moving in so they have voted DART service down whenever it comes up- even buses. Funny, but Arlington is much more "rif-raffier" than other cities on the DART line will ever be, including Plano, Carrollton, Richardson, soon Lewisville, etc. But I digress...
You can blame Dallas for losing the Cowboys (again), the Cotton Bowl, and not getting the Rangers, but Arlington is solely at fault on the transportation situation.
A DART rail running out to Jerryworld, Rangers Ballpark and Six Flags/Hurricane Harbor, all of which are right next to each other, would be a huge payday for all parties involved, and very convenient for Dallas county residents, but Arlington refuses it.

Actually should have had two lines - one for buying tickets and one for those who already had one.
I agree, it was a cluster for those that didn't already have a ticket.

To the Cowboys Stadium for stadium tours on days when there is route service to Six Flags and/or the Texas Rangers Ballpark, but only if there is no scheduled game or other major event at the stadium on that date.
