‘Duk at BigLeagueStew raises a really good question:

Why didn’t Cowboys Stadium get the Yankee Stadium treatment?

Great question. I think, however, the answer might be pretty simple: Because it’s football.

Steroids and HGH in football? No problem. Stars getting suspended? No problem. Star players shooting themselves and others, and running over pedestrians? No problem. An obnoxiously large scoreboard that has been the subject of many critical arguments and has resulted in a rules amendment? No problem. Cheerleaders in stripper cages above the fans? No problem.

All that matters is the game on Sunday. Monday through Saturday is for the media to fret over such “triviality”.

Maybe that’s all Yankee Stadium needed to quell the “behind the moat” issues! Stripper cages. Or, strippers crow’s nests, whatever.
