It really wasn’t and the Cowboy fans we had sitting around us in the club sat on their hands pretty much the entire game, and they were all pretty cool. But they were grossly outnumbered

There were tons of Cowgirl fans in the dome. I’d say 30-35% at least.

I 90/10 or so. Definitely a good showing by the Cowboys fans but not as many as some had predicted.

My best guess, 20% overall, with with some heavy concentrations where a lot of visiting fans usually sit in the upper third of the terrace and terrace endzones.

This said, overall they were amazingly quiet, seen teams like the Bills and Lions who have very few fans there, but their fans made way more noise and cheered more the the Cowboys fans.

I'd say it was a 28:3 ratio

I help with concessions in the plaza (lower) level.

The ratio of Cowboys clothing to Saints clothing, of the people that visited our stand / walked by our stand... was probably 45% Cowboys / 55% Saints.

What was really interesting was the number of Cowboys fans who bought alcohol with their NOLA-area drivers license. Also had a bunch from N. LA as well, which wasn't as surprising.

Now... every time the Saints needed the crowd to get loud... they did... and every time the Cowboys had a big play you could hear their fans... but it was a much, much lower noise level.

So I'm guessing the upper decks were almost all Saints fans.

That definitely wasn’t the ratio inside the Dome. Not even close.

Lease don’t buy in to the typical ESPN bs.

Do you not know how to read? I'm telling you that's what I saw in my tiny part of the Dome.

No way the entire stadium was that ratio... but I was shocked they had so many fans in our area.

Also... Cowboys fans don't tip.

Edit: Last year, I saw more Eagles fans and Steelers fans than I did Dallas fans this year. It was close to 60% Eagles and 70% Steelers.

Or maybe too many Saints fans don't buy concessions.

There was a decent amount in the sections to the right of mine.

I think people are probably overestimating because opposing fans tend to stick out. They're inherently more obvious, and more likely to wear jerseys and otherwise do foolish things.

I wasn't at last night's game, but I've been in the Dome for games against teams that travel well: Falcons, Raiders, Broncos, (barf) Jets... realistically, I think 5-10% is the upper bound for visiting fans and I don't see why last night would be different.

Outside of the stadium tailgating sure, I thought there would be a ton in the dome cuz it looked like 40% cowgirls. But in the dome during game 20% tops as said on first page

I took an Uber up rampart from esplanade yesterday. There were hoards of cowboy fans walking back towards the FQ from the dome area leading up to kickoff. A lot of them were just there to party

90-10 at best. Look around people. The awesome Saints fans made some historic noise.
