Like so many Dallas natives, I grew up watching the Cowboys play at Texas Stadium on Sunday afternoons. I would ask my grandfather just about every Sunday why the shadow on the field was so weird and why there was that weird hole "on top". He would always answer with the familiar refrain "there's a hole in the roof so God can watch the Cowboys play." For years, YEARS, I truly believed that.
I remember watching listening to Brad Sham scream "TOUCHDOWN TONY HILL!!!" in the closing seconds of a 1979 game over the Redskins. When I went to work for the Cowboys it became known as the "Touchdown Tony Hill" game.
