I was in the very upper section of Cowboy Stadium on Thanksgiving Day. We saw the men up at the top and one was laying in a hammock. We thought that was stupid and dumb. This is not Jerry’s fault. This is the stupidity of the workers. Our seats were so far up it was a bit too high for me.

2 workers fall from Cowboys Stadium roof

Two workers slid off the Dallas Cowboys Stadium roof while doing maintenance about 7 a.m. today.

The men fell several feet onto a parapet running along the roof's retractable section, said Don Crowson, an assistant fire chief in Arlington. Icy conditions atop the dome may have been a factor in the accident.

Neither man, who work for Manhattan Construction, was using a safety harness, as required, he said.

One worker suffered a broken leg, chest and head injuries, and had lost consciousness. The other man injured his back but was alert and talking to rescuers. None of their injuries appeared life-threatening, Crowson said.

There's a reason they are called "safety harnesses"...........
