Jerry Jones loves the look of the late-afternoon solar shining by way of the west-facing windows of AT&T Stadium, even when it’s brighter than the mother ship in Close Encounters.
After being required by FIFA to close the curtains for one in all the World Cup matches performed there (the others weren’t impacted by the setting solar), Jones is at least desirous about making a change.
“Well, do you know something?” Jones advised Fox 4. “Thinking about it and doing something about it are two different things. . . . But I’ll think about it. It’s hard to tell that time of the year, because the sun’s not the same. This time of the year that it is, in the fall. And that is, you get on into — sun changes, and the angle of that sun changes from September through year-round. But as we look at it, I like some of the effects of the tinting. And so we’re giving that a thought.”
Tinting hasn’t been one in all the previous potentialities. It’s both let the solar shine in, or pull the curtains over the windows.
Until then, it will be one in all the components that the groups should think about when selecting which purpose to defend and when calling performs at a time when gamers will be probably distracted by the rays.
The straightforward repair would have been to construct the stadium in order that it ran north and south, like the overwhelming majority of soccer fields do. Jones needed the solar to boost the general look of the stadium — particularly on TV. But if it impacts video games, and if his workforce can’t persistently flip that into a bonus, there’s no motive to dismiss a center floor that will create fascinating “effects” with out turning into a problem for the gamers.
