Dallas Cowboys Slash Ticket and Concession Prices, Offer Free Drinks After Parsons Trade Fallout
ARLINGTON, TX — The Dallas Cowboys are taking unprecedented steps to bring fans back to AT&T Stadium after a wave of backlash from one of the most controversial trades in franchise history.
Less than a week after sending superstar linebacker Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers, the Cowboys announced across-the-board price cuts on home-game tickets and concessions. Team officials also confirmed that bottled water will now be free at all stadium kiosks.
According to multiple sources, fewer than 50 percent of tickets for upcoming home games have been sold, a staggering number for a franchise long considered the NFL’s gold standard in attendance and revenue.
“We hear our fans,” one Cowboys executive said on Tuesday. “This team belongs to the people of Dallas and North Texas. We want to make it easier, more affordable, and more enjoyable to come out and support the star.”
Concession prices are reportedly being reduced by as much as 30 percent, including stadium favorites like burgers, nachos, and hot dogs. Beer prices will stay the same, but officials confirmed new “family bundles” are in the works to encourage larger groups to attend.
The move is a direct response to the frustration among Cowboys Nation following the Parsons deal. Social media has been flooded with season-ticket holders threatening to stay home or sell their seats on secondary markets in protest.
Local fan groups have described the trade as “a betrayal,” with some arguing the franchise is prioritizing financial flexibility over winning. Empty patches of seats during last week’s opener against the Eagles only reinforced those concerns.
The Cowboys insist they remain committed to competing in 2025, citing the additions of defensive tackle Kenny Clark and multiple draft picks as part of a long-term vision. But the fan backlash has already created an urgency rarely seen in Dallas.
For now, team officials hope slashing ticket costs, trimming food prices, and offering free bottled water will soothe some of the anger — and fill AT&T Stadium’s 80,000 seats when the Cowboys return home.
Eagles Place Rookie DT on IR With Designated to Return to Treat PTSD After Heartbreaking Loss of Girlfriend
Philadelphia, PA – August 28, 2025 – The Philadelphia Eagles’ cutdown week ended with a move that left both fans and teammates stunned. Instead of being defined by roster math, it was defined by human tragedy.
Earlier this month, the death of Lina Bina, a 24-year-old content creator known widely online, sent shockwaves through Philadelphia’s locker room. Her passing, linked to complications from surgery, was described by coaches as “a devastating blow.”
Inside the NovaCare Complex, players and staff quickly recognized that one rookie was carrying a pain no playbook or practice could prepare him for. That grief has now shaped the team’s most difficult decision.
That rookie is Gabe Hall, an undrafted defensive tackle out of Baylor, who fought his way into training camp after years of setbacks. He will begin the season on Injured Reserve with a designation to return.
Hall, just 23 years old, had spent August trying to balance football dreams with unbearable heartbreak. His partner, who supported his entire college journey, passed away before she could watch his NFL debut. The loss triggered PTSD symptoms.
Rather than push him forward, the Eagles chose compassion. Head coach Nick Sirianni told reporters the roster is about “family first,” echoing a message that Hall’s recovery — both mental and emotional — takes precedence over football snaps.

The move does impact depth, as Philadelphia had eyed Hall as a developmental piece on the defensive line. But teammates stressed his value off the field, calling him “a fighter who deserves time to heal.”
When he does return, Eagles fans will see more than a rookie defensive tackle. They’ll see a young man who carried grief with courage, reminding the NFL that behind every helmet lies a human story.
